Pal of My Cradle Days lyrics

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 that you didn't do

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

Greatest friend, dearest pal

It was me who caused you

Every sorrow and heartache you knew

Your face so fair I have wrinkled with care

I placed every line that is there

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
