Mother, can you hold me together?
It's so dark and I'm losing my way
I took all of these detours to find love
And when I did, it just faded away
Now what do I do
With this sweet love of mine?
Do I give it away?
And hope someday I'll find
Someone half as awake
As the moon and the stars
Mother, teach me to love
With a paper-thin heart
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
Mother, your words are so healing
You speak of love and of light and of peace
But I've made it my course to avoid you
Just to hide from these feelings of grief
Now what do I do
With this sweet love of mine?
Do I give it away?
And hope someday I'll find
Someone half as awake
As the moon and the stars
Mother, teach me to love
With a paper-thin heart
Now what do I do
With this sweet love of mine?
Do I give it away?
And hope someday I'll find
Someone half as awake
As the moon and the stars
Mother, teach me to love
With a paper-thin heart
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
Mother, I know you are with me
You were there when I took my first breath
I can't stop looking back for the answers
I just keep coming up with regret
And there are some things I just can't forget
