<b>Mama Here, Mama Gone</b> by <i>Mary Gauthier</i><br />Basinets and babies

St. Vincent's Infants Home

Orphaned in limbo

Helpless and alone

Paradise receding

Paradise withdrawn

A tiny heart is beating

Mama here

Mama gone

Mama gone

Cut loose and falling

Thru the crevasse cradle crack

Rock a bye baby

Mama ain't coming back

This night has no ending

This darkness no dawn

Descending, descending

Mama here

Mama gone

Mama gone

Day and nights of falling

Thru darkness without dawn

Baby's arms quit reaching

Mama here, Mama gone

Mama here, Mama gone
