I bring her morning coffee everyday

She calls me Raymond
Dia memanggilku Raymond
She thinks I'm her son
Dia mengira aku anaknya
Tells me get washed up for supper

Before your daddy gets home
Sebelum ayahmu pulang

She goes on about the weather

How she can't believe it's already 1943
Betapa dia tak percaya sudah tahun 1943
She calls me Raymond

And that's all right by me
Dan itu tidak masalah bagiku

She talks about clothes on the line in the summer air
Dia bercerita tentang baju-baju yang dijemur di udara musim panas
Christmas morning and Thanksgiving prayer
Pagi Natal dan doa Syukur
And stories of a family that I never had

Well, sometimes I find myself wishing I'd been there
Kadang-kadang aku berharap aku ada di sana
