Mother & Father

The nights are getting shorter

I don't know where to go

I am getting older

And it's starting to show

And ever since I left my mother

It's much harder to know

How to make my own life here

How to make my own home

I don't want to wake up lonely

I don't want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I had in mind

I don't want to wake up lonely

I don't want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I had in mind

Forget what I had in mind

I remember a time when a kiss on the hand was enough

'Cause we know we were free

And we knew what it meant to be love

But ever since I left my father

It's much harder to know

How to make my own life here

When all I need is home

I don't want to wake up lonely

I don't want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I had in mind

I don't want to wake up lonely

I don't want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I had in mind

Forget what I had in mind

This face's is starting to fade

They're slipping through my hands

It's where my heart was made

And my feet will always land

I don't want to wake up lonely

I don't want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I had in mind

I don't want to wake up lonely

I don't want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I had in mind

Forget what I had in mind

I don't want to wake up lonely
