She's the sky that holds the clouds

She's the lady of the house

A blind believer in all I dare to be

There's no safer place I've found

Than the shoulder of her white night gown

Oh I've got the best and the worst of her in me

And I'd share her if I could So the wars would all be over

'Cause she'd raise us all as friends

And no one would ever wonder if somebody wanted them

We'd walk on grass that's greener

And our cares would all be freer

If the world had a mother like mine She's our father's one great love

She's the one he wanted most

She's the light in the window of the house I grew up in

She takes the midnight call

She's the bravest of us all

Still she sings in the garden, she let's her hair down in Oh the wars would all be over

'Cause she'd raise us all as friends

And no one would ever wonder, if somebody wanted them

Tonight would be easier

And our dreams would all be deeper

If the world had a mother like mine Don't go away, don't go away from me

Oh I understand, she is a helping hand still

I have to say She's the sky that holds the clouds

She's the lady of our house

We all need her, but no one more than me Oh the wars would all be over

'Cause she'd raise us all as friends

And no one would ever wonder, if somebody wanted them

We'd walk on grass that's greener

And the dishes would all be cleaner

If the world had a mother like mine Oh like mine
