Single Mother

oh tell me single mother

i'll hang on every word

what you have to do these days

to get your story heard

i'm not taking any chances

this' my only interview

i met a single mother

and the damsel fit the shoe

single mother did i tell you

you must wait for your reward

when you need a new beginning

and you don't know where to start

you won't hear my confession

this is just an interview

i say the word you take it down

that's all there is to you

how can a heart once empty

become so full of noise

obscuring what little view i have

of the blue eyed little boy

single mother 's gone into hiding

little traces i found

where our home with no exception

would move its daily ground

i find it sometimes hard to handle

but i will not ask for more

i'll trade salvation at a glance

for a blanket on the floor

and here 's why single mother

i'm calling off the search

all i can see is foul play

and schism in the church
