Pigpen Theatre Co. My Only Son
My only son, falter none
As my mind slips away
But I won't forget your name
And I won't forget your face
Little one, my only son
How could a melody
Hummed by a memory
Die quick
So tuned to nothing
It hangs oh so empty
Not thick
How could I lose you
When I don't choose to
Will it bend, or will it mend?
Will it mend, or will it break?
But I won't forget your name
And I won't forget your face
Little one, my only son
With stories ever old
You told them so they never grow faint
They stay as something all together nothing remains
How could I lose you
When I don't choose to
Will it bend, or will it mend?
Will it mend, or will it break?
