[BURR] Dear Theodosia, how to say to you Sometime last night, your mother breathed your name And like a flame that flickers out too soon, she died She’s gone
She dedicated every day to you She changed my life, she made my life worthwhile And when you smile I know a part of her lives on I know I can go on You have come of age with our young nation We bleed and fight for you Sometimes it seems that's all we do And you and I will build a strong foundation And I'll be here for you The way is clear for you to blow us all away
