Mother |
Oh Lord, won’t you leave me |
Leave me on my knees? |
Cause I belong to the ground now |
And it belongs to thee |
And oh Lord, won’t you leave me |
Leave me just like this? |
Cause I belong to the ground now |
I want no more than this |
How I long for the autumn |
The sun keeps burning deep |
Every stone in this city keeps reminding me |
Can you protect me from what I want? |
The love I let in, it left me so lost |
Mother, make me |
Make me a big tall tree |
So I can shed my leaves and let it blow through me |
Mother, make me |
Make me a big grey cloud |
So I can rain on you things I can’t say out loud |
All these couples are kissing |
And I can’t stand the heat |
I lost my shoes and left the party |
I wander in the street |
I put my feet into the fountain |
The statues' all asleep |
No use wishing on the water |
It grants you no relief |
Mother, make me |
Make me a bird of prey |
So I can rise above this, let it fall away |
Mother, make me |
Make me a song so sweet |
Heaven trembles, fallen at our feet |
