I Have A Memory

In my mind I have a memory

of days many years ago.

It's the picture of my mom and dad

singing songs that they loved so.

There were two songs I remember

they would sing most every night,

" When Mother Played The Organ "

and " I Wish I Were Home Tonight. "

Those happy times together

Bring tears though joy to me.

Such sweet and loving memories

Of a life that used to be.

When Mother Played The Organ

When mother played the organ

And daddy sang a hymn

The lights were low, the music slow,

And the words how well I know.

Beautiful isle of somewhere

Brought tears to their eyes growing dim.

When mother played the organ

And daddy sang a hymn.

I Wish I Were Home Tonight

I wish I were home tonight

Home with the dear old folks.

Mother and Father are old and gray.

Sad were their hearts when I went away.

No matter where I may roam

In the window they still place a light.

For there's no place like home

And, I wish I were there tonight.
