*Pal Of My Cradle Days*

Mother of mine, with a smile so devine,
And a voice just like music to me
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
For a Pal as good as you
Why too late, I found out now it's true.

Pal of my cradle days, I've needed you always
Since I was a Baby upon your knee
You sacrificed everything for me
I stole the gold from your hair
I put the silver threads there
I don't know any way, I could ever repay
Pal of my cradle days.

What a friend what a Pal, only now I can see
how you dreamed and you planned all for me
I never knew, what a Mother goes through
Why too late, I found out now it's true.

Pal of my cradle days, I've needed you always
Since I was a Baby upon your knee
You sacrificed everything for me
I stole the gold from your hair
I put the silver threads there
I don't know any way, I could ever repay
Pal of my cradle days.

This version is a little different:


PAL OF MY CRADLE DAYS
As sung by Ann McCann

1. What a friend! What a pal! Only now I can see
How you dreamed and you planned all for me.
I never knew what a mother goes through.
There's nothing you didn't do.

CHORUS: Pal of my cradle days,
I've needed you always.
Since I was a baby upon your knee,
You sacrificed ev'rything for me.
I stole the gold from your hair.
I put the silver threads there.
I don't know any way
I could ever repay
Pal of my cradle days.

2. Latest(?) friend, dearest pal, it was me who caused you
Ev'ry sorrow and heartache, you know.
Your face so fair I have wrinkled with care.
I placed ev'ry line that is there.

CHORUS

REPEAT VERSE 1
