Mother Songtext / Lyric

In a patent leather life

I was foolish, you were right

All night rookies pass the time

They're looking for somewhere to go

Shiny boots are up their thighs



Mother in the night

Calling you, calling you

Mother in the night

Where are you, where are you now?



Mother's left the building

We're the missing children

Mother in the night

Where are you, where are you tonight?



Mother, may I stay all night?

Lift your curfew like the light

Collars turned against the cold

I'm looking for someone to hold

In your patent leather night






Mother in the night

Calling you, calling you

Mother in the night

Where are you, where are you now?



Mother's left the building

We're the missing children

Mother in the night

Where are you, where are you?



Now that I can't remember

I need you more than ever

Why can't we be together always?



Mother in the night

Mother in the night



Mother's left the building

We're the missing children

Mother in the night

Where are you, where are you now?



Mother in the night

Calling you, calling you

Mother in the night

Where are you, where are you tonight?
