Time stands still as I stare at the water
Your hand is all I can feel
Time stands still as I gaze at the sky
Don't know if this is for real
My mother growned - my father wept
Into the dangerous world I lept
Struggling in my father's hands
Striving against my struggling bands
Bound and weary I thought best
To sulk upon my mother's breast
Time stands still as I stare at the water
Your hand is all I can feel
Time stands still as I gaze at the sky
Don't know if this is for real
Strive mother earth
Strive mother
My mother growned - my father wept
Into the dangerous world I lept
Struggling in my father's hands
Striving against my struggling bands
Bound and weary I thought best
To sulk upon my mother's breast
Strive mother earth
Strive mother

Your hand is all I can feel
Time stands still as I gaze at the sky
Don't know if this is for real
My mother growned - my father wept
Into the dangerous world I lept
Struggling in my father's hands
Striving against my struggling bands
Bound and weary I thought best
To sulk upon my mother's breast
Time stands still as I stare at the water
Your hand is all I can feel
Time stands still as I gaze at the sky
Don't know if this is for real
Strive mother earth
Strive mother
My mother growned - my father wept
Into the dangerous world I lept
Struggling in my father's hands
Striving against my struggling bands
Bound and weary I thought best
To sulk upon my mother's breast
Strive mother earth
Strive mother
