Hi Lisa, found this for you, but there is no author or title .... "I once had a dear old mother who was all the world to me And when i was in trouble she sat me on her knee One night as i lay sleeping apon my feather bed An Angel came from Heaven and told me mum was dead I woke up in the morning to see if it was true Yes mum had gone to heaven above the Sky so blue So children obey your parents and do as you are told Cause if you lose your Mother you lose a heart of Gold" Hope this helps. Maz. XX

Here's the original publishing contract for a song that Aaron Neville wrote with Tony Berg entitled "Cradle Days" (Only Neville has signed). Interestingly, Neville never recorded this song to my knowledge - but BETTE MIDLER did! The song appears on her LP "Thighs and Whispers". Found this so I was half right !! Esta

"Cradle Days" You took me from my mother's lovin' arms. I still had about a foot to grow. Whoa-ooh, I must have been only maybe seventeen. It was a very long time ago. Actually we raised each other; you, our kids and myself. You wait 'til you become a part of me, then you wanna put me on the shelf. put me on a shelf Woah, that first kiss you gave me, I still remember. I was just a child, dear. Your lips were so warm and tender. That kiss, I'll always remember. That was the first day we met. I remember what the preacher said: "Girl, will you be his wedded wife, forever and ever 'n' stand beside that boy forever, like for the rest of your natural life?" for the rest of your life You took my darlin' babies from me! You really broke my heart in two! God in heaven heaven knows knows that I love them! And in your heart you know it's true! know it's true Oh, that first kiss you gave me, I still remember. I was just a child. Your lips were so warm and tender. That kiss, oh, I'll always remember. That was the first day we met. always remember, it's a kiss that I'll never forget I don't remember too much about my cradle days. remember Guess you could say I became a woman too fast. you grew up too fast, too fast Whoa, what did I know? That you were the right man for me. that's what I knew What did I know? I knew that I loved that man! love that, love that, love that, love that man Whoa, that first kiss you gave me, oh-o-o, how I still remember! I was just a child, dear. Your lips were so warm and tender. That kiss, I will always remember, 'cause that was the first day we met. The first day we met, darlin' darlin', darlin' darlin', whoa darlin', the first day we met. remember when Whoa, I remember! Come back, baby, let's talk it over! remember when Don't take your love away from me! weeeeeee first met! remember when Come back, baby. Oh, don't you wanna try it on one more time boy? remember when Let's talk it over. Let's talk it over! weeeeeee first met! remember when Oh, how can I forget you? Branded me!
