Simon Tall - Lucky Charms Lyrics

It rained the day my mother died
I took the washing off the line
Just like every other time before
And when I held her in my arms
I thought of all those lucky charms
And all the funny things that went before
And ooh, how she sighed
And ooh, some of us cried
It rained the day my mother died
I heard my brother sat and cried
I've never seen him cry like that before
And when I held her hand in mine
I thought of all that fleeting time
And wondrous things that never rhymed before
And ooh, how she sighed
And ooh, some of us cried
