|
Mother, daughter, sister, lover, |
|
Her needles and pins hold the pieces together, |
|
She'll thread your pearls with her words of wisdom, |
|
In the palm of her hand, your future is there running |
|
Through |
|
Mother, daughter, sister, lover, |
|
There's no perfect choice, as you walk in your future |
|
Be still a child on your bed of eggshell, |
|
Behind your first steps, it's her shadows that cushion |
|
Your fall |
|
All questions will simply beg, |
|
The most innocent replies. |
|
She'll make you a daisy chain |
|
And cry as you walk away. |
|
Mother, daughter, sister, lover, |
|
Her needles and pins hold the pieces together, |
|
She'll thread your pearls with her words of wisdom, |
|
A shoulder to cry on, |
|
She'll leave all the lights on for you |
|
Yeah she will leave them on for you |
|
All questions will simply beg, |
|
The most innocent replies. |
|
She'll make you a daisy chain |
|
And cry as you break away. |
|
Mother, daughter, sister, lover, |
|
One day soon you'll be one or the other, |
|
You'll offer forgiveness, my savior, my sinner, |
|
And then you will see that the circle begins here with... |
|
Mother, daughter, sister, lover, |
|
Father, and son, brother, lover |
|
One day soon you'll be one or the other. |
|
And you'll see that the circle begins here with...me |
|
We can grow together |
|
We can walk together |
|
We can laugh, we can |
|
Cry together |
|
Mother, daughter, |
|
Sister, lover |
|
Father, and son, |
|
Brother, lover |
|
One day soon |
|
I'll discover |
|
What will be... |
|
One or the other |
