GYou fold his hands and smooth his tie, you gently lift his chin.
CWere you really so blind, and unkind to him?
EmCan't help the itch to touch, to kiss, to hold him once again.
AmNow to close his eyes--never open Cthem....
GA shadow passed, Ca shadow passed, Amyearning, Cyearning
AmFor the fool it called a Chome.
GAll things he never did are Cleft behind.
All the things his Emmama wished he'd bear in mind,
And Amall his dad had hoped he'd Cknow.
GThe talks you never had, the saturdays you never spent.
CAll the 'grown-up' places you never went.
EmAnd all of the crying you wouldn't understand.
AmYou just let him cry, 'make a man out of Chim.'

AmFor the fool it called a Chome.
GAll things he ever wished arCe left behind..
All the things his Emmama did to make him mind,
And Amhow his dad had hoped he'd Cgrow.
GAll things he ever lived are Cleft behind.
All the fears that Emever flickered through his mind.
All the Amsadness that he'd come to Cown.
GA shadow passed, Ca shadow passed, Amyearning, Cyearning
