Sweeter Than The Flowers Lyrics - Kitty Wells

Yes as far as I can remember she'll remain the rose of my heart 

Mom took sick along in December February brought us broken heart 

The reason we've not called the family reunion we knew that she wouldn't be there 

But since we've thought it all over mama we know that your spirit is there 

No no I can't forget the hours you're the only one mom and sweeter than the flowers 

No no there's no need to bother because without you now would only hurt father 

Oh no mama we'll never forget you and someday we'll meet you up there 

[ steel ] 

You looked so sweet we all were together brother and I close to dad 

Oh mama when I passed by your coffin I didn't want to remember you dead 

They all gathered round I stared at their faces all heads were bowed mighty low 

But that was one time we all had to face it though it hurt us so bad you know 

No no I can't forget the hours...
