Mother Says
We'll go now to the Laundry Maybe your sister is there
Mother says When you're young like this
Things can seem pretty bad Let's get out, walk by the river
And there are people who roam the dark lands
And there are ships passing in the night
And there are thousands of things that I have dreamed
Gone in the daylight
Sister says Hold your head up high
Life goes on, so don't be afraid
Keep your defenses, but don't shut the loving out
You've got to learn to carry that weight
And all the people who roam the dark land
All the ships passing in the night
All the thousands of things that I have dreamed
Are gone in the daylight
Sometimes I feel like I'm in a foreign land
And there's a mirror I'm looking through
Lost in a place where I was born without a head
To moon on two
Oh no
And in the dark lands where I was born
People keep moving to and fro
Everybody's pushing trying to make it happen
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
I miss you more than I thought I could
I need you more than you know
I was there when they took you away from me
I'll be there when they let you go
And then the people who roam the dark land
And all the ships passing in the night
And the thousands of things that I had dreamed
Will stay in the daylight
Sometimes I feel like I'm in a foreign land
And there's a mirror I'm looking through
Bring me back to the place where I was born
I need a hand to hold on to
Give me your hand to hold on to
Ah, ah
Ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
