You and me against the world
"Tell me again Mommy."
You and me against the world
Sometimes it feels like you and me against the world
When all the others turn their backs and walk away
You can count on me to stay
Remember when the circus came to town
And you were frightened by the clown
Wasn't it nice to be around
Someone that you knew
Someone who was big and strong and looking out for
You and me against the world
Sometimes it feels like you and me against the world
And for all the times we've cried
I've always felt that god was on our side
And when one of us is gone
And one of us is left to carry on
Then remembering will have to do
Our memories alone will get us through
Think about the days of me and you
You and me against the world
And when one of us is gone
And one of us is left to carry on
Then remembering will have to do
Our memories alone will get us through
Think about the days of me and you
You and me against the world.
"I love you Mommy."
"I love you too, Baby."
-Helen Reddy
My Mom used to sing this song to us.
I of course did not know how true to life this song would become for us. We have both hung on to this song. I can not speak for my sister, but I would suspect her reasons are quite similar to mine. This song was my Mom's way of saying her goodbye and her final I love you to me, and I to her. I look at it as her way of telling me that she is always there watching over me, us. And when she can't be ther to watch over us, then she knows that we will be able to watch over each other, my sister and I. We have not always done the best of jobs, caring for one another, but I believe that when we were lacking, Mom was there watching, and waiting for us to get it together for one another.
Fred took my mother from me and he took my childhood, but he left me my sister, and he left me my dignity, and my spirit. I have my pride, and I have my love, and no one can ever take those things from me.
I may have bad days and I may not always know which end is the correct end to drink out of, but I will be just fine.
