Mother tongue
|
I speak that language
|
There are no words
|
But there is meaning
|
My secret love song
|
My eyes swell
|
I'm free
|
|
Mother tongue
|
Never betrayed me
|
Inhale your life
|
One more breath
|
I'm dancing
|
Lacking wings still
|
I can fly from you
|
|
I could lose everything
|
Surrendering to you
|
Like praying to a god above
|
Who doesn't even want to know you
|
|
Mother tongue
|
Today I curse you
|
Where's my voice
|
Have I lost my virtue
|
How much more can I sacrifice for you
|
|
I could lose everything
|
Surrendering to you
|
Like praying to a god
|
Who doesn't even want to know you
|
|
Down on my knees for you
|
Your hands crawling through my hair
|
I forgot to be cautious here
|
Finally I cry I cry
|
|
I could lose everything
|
Surrendering to you
|
Like praying to a god
|
Who doesn't even want to know you...
