When Is The Time Right?


When is the time right, to do the right or wrong thing?
When it's really so sad, it makes the heart sting.

When is the time right, to go into a home?
Is it when the person is always alone?

When is the time right to make that call?
Is it when there's no one to give it their all?

When is the time right to make that choice?
And who is to do it, by whose voice?

When is the time right to begin that course?
And move her into a home, and is there remorse?

When is the time right to do what's so sad?
When a heart hurts and the pain is so bad?

When is the time right to do what's needed?
And is it the wrong choice, are words heeded?

When is the time right to do this thing?
And will I be able to even give her a ring?

When is the time right, and how do I phone?
When a mother so frail goes into a home?

When is the time right, and who's to inform me?
That the arrangements are made; because I can't see!

When is the time right to tell a sister their plan?
And let me know, as I know they can!

When is the time right to do this thing?
And crush a heart so it no longer can sing?

When is the time right to make that decision?
Are they selfish? And their plans are hidden!

When is the time right to go into a home?
Is it when the person is all alone?

When is the time right to let me know?!
What the plan is, and to what home she'll go?!

When it's all sorted out it seems!!
And when other family members are told before me!
