So It Goes

No need to worry the kids
She kept her lips sealed
Until the test results came in
A mother's burden, that's all

My dear, you probably should have called
Cut up and bruised
It's a long way home
Snow storming and driving alone

You shouldn't have kept this to yourself
But there's no need to worry
You've got your health
So it goes

In some way, however small or secret
We are all a little mad
Well, you gave us a scare
Now you've got our attention
But then again you've always had

So tonight when you lay down to bed
Yeah, this pain, it is fleeting
Just rest your heavy head
The sutures will be out soon
Oh yes, the sutures will be out soon
So it goes
