6am in the morning
And we could read off your skin
That you had no sleep
So tenderly
Each day that you would wake me
With a cup of lukewarm tea
I was too late to dream
And Mary said,
no you can't give back The love she gave to you
And that's not so bad Cause you can share what you had
If you feel the same way too
Cause a mother's heart does not
redeem us
It sheds love to the end And devotes itself from the start
Cause a mother's heart
does not fall apart
Six p.m.
in the
evening And you were getting yourself ready for stage
That old sequined dress
That lipstick and cherry reds
Couldn't take my eyes off you
When you sang the whole night through
And Mary said,
no you can't give back The love she gave to you
And that's not so bad Cause you can share what you had
If you feel the same way too
Cause a
mother's heart
does not redeem us
It sheds love to the end And devotes itself from the start
Cause a mother's heart does not fall apart
Neither you and neither me
We both don't play it perfectly
Cause a mother's heart does not redeem us It sheds love to the end
And devotes itself from the start
Cause a mother's heart does not
redeem us
It sheds love to the end And
devotes itself from the start
Cause a mother's heart does not fall apart
