Mother
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.
Where will I bethe day I need you for my own?
Who will I be when I can't reach you on the phone?
Will I still be the same?
Will I still feel this pain?
Will you still be mother when you're dead and gone?
All alone, on my own
Finally me, without the mountains or the sea
Lord, what is to be?
Why do my past just have to leave?
I always loved your soul
I know I've been much too cold
We've had times of trouble that were never told
When is it too late to say that I loved you anyway?
Will I still be proud when you're dead and gone?
All alone, on my own
Oh mother can't you see that this fight is all about me?
Why can't you understand that I'm a child and a grown up woman?
Mother can't you see that this fight is all about me?
You think that I'm wild but I'm a woman and still a child
Disappointed and proud
I wish I dared to scream out loud
we've been the same
God give me words so I can explain
Don't say I never tried
Don't ever say I lied
Will I still be something when you're dead and gone?
Please try to ease my pain
So I can feel again
Say you always loved me before you're dead and gone all alone, on my own
But finally you won't be no other than my mother
