Baby crossed an ocean
Just to see what she could see
Half the world beneath her feet
A rose between her teeth
Spent her lifetime loving
Spent her lifetime living fine
But since you broke her heart, yeah
She needs a little time
A little time, a little time
Before we were old memories
And I guessed that we'd be fine
Shooting stars still break her heart
And sunsets make her cry
Watch the birds fly over head
You can catch them if you try
Watch the planes fly over head
You can catch them if you try
If you try, if you try
Two stones in my pocket, girl
I keep them for my dreams
I give 'em both to you now
'Cause you need them more than me
Your mother's arms will keep you safe
Wherever you may be
Your mother's arms will keep you safe
However you may be
You may be, you may be
Baby crossed an ocean
Just to see what she could see
Half the world beneath her feet
A rose between her teeth
Spent her lifetime loving
Spent her lifetime living fine

Your mother's arms will keep you safe
