Mother can you hold me together 
It's so dark and I'm losing my way 
It took all of these detours to find love 
But when I did it just faded away  

Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine 
Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find 
Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars 
Mother teach me to love
With a paper thin heart  

Mother your words are so healing 
You speak of love, and of light, and of peace 
But I've made it my course to avoid you
Just to hide from these feelings of grief

Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine 
Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find 
Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars 
Mother teach me to love
With a paper thin heart  

Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine 
Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find 
Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars 
Mother teach me to love
With a paper thin heart  

Mother, I know you are with me
You were there when I took my first breath
I can't stop looking back for the answers
I just keep coming up with regret
There are some things I just can't forget
