Mother Tongue
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In your world full of broken parts
All you know is moving cars
But through chaos in the dark, I'll find your heart
Driving fast through our old towns
Hunting out our common founds
And after the lights go down, I'll find your heart
Feeling your breath going down my neck
Feeling your head rest upon my chest
Knowing your hands were wrapped around my back
Holding you was when I realized
I was bound for a big surprise
So I took off my disguise
And I looked right in your eyes
And saw your heart was on fire bright
Welcome to my part of Earth
You'll find things you thought weren't worth
Any interest on your part, but you'll find my heart
Feeling your breath going down my neck
Feeling your head rest upon my chest
Knowing your hands were wrapped around my back
Holding you was when I realized
I was bound for a big surprise
So I took off my disguise
And I looked right in your eyes
No word in my mother tongue
Could explain now what you have done to me
No word in my mother tongue
Could explain now what you have done to me
Feeling your breath going down my neck
Feeling your head rest upon my chest
Knowing your hands were wrapped around my back
Holding you was when I realized
I was bound for a big surprise
So I took off my disguise
And I looked right in your eyes
Yeah, I looked right in your eyes
And saw your heart was on fire bright
And saw your heart was on fire bright
And saw your heart was on fire bright
