Another day is at hand
mama says she's tired again
No one can even begin to tell her
I hardly know what to say
but maybe its better that way
If papa were here
I'm sure he'd tell her
Shannon is gone,I've heard
she's drifting off to sea
she always loved to swim and play
maybe she'll find that island
with a shady tree
just like the one in our back yard
Mama tries hard to pretend
things will get better again
somehow she's keeping it all inside her
finally the tears fill our eyes
and i know that somewhere tonight
she knows how much we really miss her
Shannon is gone,I've heard
she's drifting off to sea
she always loved to swim and play
maybe she'll find that island
with a shady tree
just like the one in our back yard
just like the one in our back yard
Shannon
