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
|
