Mother歌词

[00:25.49]Oh Lord, won't you leave me
[00:28.49]Leave me on my knees?
[00:31.52]Cause I belong to the ground now
[00:34.46]And it belongs to thee
[00:37.01]And oh Lord, won't you leave me
[00:40.75]Leave me just like this?
[00:43.72]Cause I belong to the ground now
[00:46.81]I want no more than this
[00:50.16]How I long for the autumn
[00:52.97]The sun keeps burning deep
[00:56.11]Every stone in this city keeps reminding me
[01:03.10]Can you protect me from what I want?
[01:07.76]The love I let in, it left me so lost
[01:14.72]Mother, make me
[01:17.82]Make me a big tall tree
[01:20.82]So I can shed my leaves and let it blow through me
[01:26.93]Mother, make me
[01:30.07]Make me a big grey cloud
[01:33.08]So I can rain on you, things I can't say out loud
[01:43.44]
[01:51.48]All these couples are kissing
[01:54.38]And I can't stand the heat
[01:57.53]I lost my shoes and left the party
[02:00.48]I wander in the street
[02:03.73]I put my feet into the fountain
[02:06.73]The statues' all asleep
[02:09.88]No use wishing on the water
[02:12.83]It grants you no relief
[02:15.89]Mother, make me
[02:19.08]Make me a bird of prey
[02:22.08]So I can rise above this, let it fall away
[02:28.23]Mother, make me
[02:31.23]Make me a song so sweet
[02:34.33]Heaven trembles, fallen at our feet
[02:54.33]
[03:04.98]Oh Lord, won't you leave me
[03:08.09]Leave me on my knees?
[03:11.15]Cause I belong to the ground now
[03:14.10]And it belongs to thee
[03:17.12]And oh Lord, won't you leave me
[03:20.26]Leave me just like this?
[03:23.23]Cause I belong to the ground now
[03:26.39]I want no more than this
[03:29.44]Oh Lord, won't you leave me
[03:32.56]Leave me on my knees?
[03:35.52]Cause I belong to the ground now
[03:38.63]And it belongs to thee
[03:41.77]And oh Lord, won't you leave me
[03:44.73]Leave me just like this?
[03:47.77]Cause I belong to the ground now
[03:50.83]I want no more than this
[03:54.37]
