Lyrics

I Don’t Wanna Go On

The days are getting longer now but still
I can hardly muster up the will
November was the hardest month of all
I had to sit with you and see you fall

Mumma you’re gone
And I often don’t wanna go on
I hear your voice inside me saying stay
But mum it gets harder every day

This song feels twisted up bent out of shape
I never thought I’d have to write about this day
It came too soon for me to really see
All that I had when you were here with me

Mumma you’re gone
And I often don’t wanna go on
I hear your voice inside me saying stay
But mum it gets harder every day

I used to share all that I wrote with you
You always helped me to reach my truth
You knew every word and came to every show
My champion of 30 years I know

Mumma you’re gone
And I often don’t wanna go on
I hear your voice inside me saying stay, stay, stay
But mum I miss you today

The wishes that will never come true
Make me sad both for me and you

Cause mumma you’re gone, gone, gone
Your body has moved on
I hear your voice inside me saying stay, stay, stay
But mum… ooooh mum
