She's the sky that holds the cloudsShe's the lady of the houseA blind believer in all I dare to beThere's no safer place I've foundThan the shoulder of her white night gownOh I've got the best and the worst of her in meI'd share her if I could
Oh the wars would all be over'Cause she'd raise us all as friendsAnd no one would ever wonder if somebody wanted themWe'd walk on grass that's greenerAnd our cares would all be freerIf the world had a mother like mine
She's our father's one great loveShe's the one he wanted mostShe's the light in the window of the house I grew up inShe takes the midnight callShe's the bravest of us allAnd she sings in the garden that she let's her hair down in
Don't go away Don't go away from meOh I understandShe is a helping handBut I have to say
She's the sky that holds the cloudsShe's the lady of our houseWe all need herBut no one more than me
Oh the wars would all be over'Cause she'd raise us all as friendsAnd no one would ever wonder just how much she wanted themWe'd walk on grass that's greenerAnd the dishes would all be cleanerIf the world had a mother like mine
Oh like mine
Oh the wars would all be over'Cause she'd raise us all as friendsAnd no one would ever wonder if somebody wanted themWe'd walk on grass that's greenerAnd our cares would all be freerIf the world had a mother like mine
