Mother

I was born in a sudden embrace, I'm awake

So I study the shape of your face

You take what you're given

I only wanna do what's good for you

And at once, I'm checking the doors and my weight

I can't keep my hands from my face

I said, "Mom, I'm so sorry"

She smiled and said, "Darling, I don't want you to worry, 'cause

I'm on your side for the rest of your life

You'll never be alone, don't you worry my child

And now there's an empty room you outgrew

But I'm here for you, oh-oh-oh-oh"

And I've known the feeling you're held

The comfort of being unwell

So something can cradle you

Oh, I don't need it

Oh, I won't grieve it

I'm on your side for the rest of your life

You'll never be alone, don't you worry my child

And now there's an empty room you outgrew

But I'm here for you, oh-oh-oh-oh

I'll do right by you

I only wanna do what's best for you

I'm on your side for the rest of your life

You'll never be alone, don't you worry my child

And though there's an empty room you outgrew

I'll wait for you, oh-oh-oh-oh

I'm on your side for the rest of your life

You'll never be alone, don't you worry my child

And now there's an empty room you outgrew

But I'm here for you, oh-oh-oh-oh
