lyrics

Mabel Keane

As I stood across the river
From the hill on where you lay
And I gathered all the summer sun
And grass to make the hay
The rain to fix the roof
for it had seen a better day
Left a hole no heart could fill
for your love had gone away

I painted you in colour
Though the memories black and white
And the daylight broke the darkness
Of a black and starry night
And your face most every morning
Your voice when I awoke
Is the first and last reminder
That my heart is surely broke

Now your gone the house is empty
You were only seventeen
In my heart you’ll live forever
oh my darling Mabel Keane
Oh you never went to London
And you never met the queen
In my heart you’ll live forever
Oh my darling Mabel Keane

Now your gone the house is empty
You were only seventeen
In my heart you’ll live forever
oh my darling Mabel Keane
Oh you’ve never been to London
And you’ve never met the queen
In my heart you’ll live forever
Oh my darling Mabel Keane

This has been a hard year as a social worker I recognise that I am not facing the reality of the saving of lives and I despair at how the government have treated our nhs people. I have been responding to the needs and crisis faced by children and young people in care . Carers with health vulnerability with challenging teens who won’t follow the rules- risks there create anxiety, carers of children who have been abused and traumatised- limited services - songs like this keep me going thanks maureenb
