[00:14.571]Hopelessly the ghost
[00:18.459]Of me sinks down into a chair
[00:27.743]And underneath the cushion
[00:32.798]There's a ribbon from her hair
[00:40.221]A crumpled up reminder
[00:46.101]That my daughter's only here
[00:53.509]For six weeks every summer
[00:59.184]Christmas every other year
[01:06.360]The role of part time mother
[01:11.624]It's the toughest role I play
[01:19.177]My name's up there in neon lights
[01:25.968]Lord what a price to pay
[01:32.083]The only thing it cost was giving up
[01:39.102]What used to be
[01:45.949]My little angel baby
[01:52.107]By the name of Shelly
[01:58.597]I bravely step back in my world
[02:05.012]It's only cheap veneer
[02:11.285]And I die inside for summertime
[02:17.932]And when Christmas time is near
[02:24.139]When up the stairs comes
[02:25.763]All my prayers yelling
[02:28.202]Mom it's me I'm here
[02:34.394]For six weeks every summer every summer
[02:42.046]Christmas Christmas every other year
[02:49.852]Just found a note
[02:52.787]My darling wrote she left it by the phone
[03:03.014]She knew I'd need some extra strength
[03:09.232]To face my life alone
[03:15.797]It says I'll always love you mom
[03:22.516]Although I'm only here
[03:28.335]For six weeks every summer Christmas every other year
[03:42.218]I'd gladly give up all my fame
[03:48.766]If only I could hear
[03:55.589]My baby calling mommy every morning
[04:03.781]Of the year
