Mother Songtext / Lyric

Do you remember when I was a baby

Did I cry, did I cry?

I only remember the days I was laughin'

When you sang me sweet lullabies

When you sang me sweet bye and bye



But sometimes I wonder if you were an angel

Would you fly, would you fly

Or would you just hover right here by my side

Keepin' me warm and dry

Keepin' me safe by your side



Mother mother won't fall from grace

Light a room with the lines on your face

And if you were a river run dry

Well I'd sing you sweet bye and bye






An' all of the birds that land on my window

Sing your name, sing your name

When all of the time I am cryin' again

About how much the sky likes to rain

When I should be singin' your name



Mother, mother won't fall from grace

Light a room with the lines on your face

And if you were a river run dry

Well I'd sing you sweet bye and bye



An' all of the flowers by the side of the road

They whisper your name while they grow

And if you were a river run dry

Well I'd sing you sweet bye and bye



And if you were a river run dry

Well I'd sing you sweet bye and bye
