Mother

(アルバム： Bulletin... We Interrupt This Record - 1983)

Do you ever wonder, Mother
What became of me
As I wonder, Mother, what became of you
Now your child's become a woman in her own right
And she'd like you to know, wherever you are
That she loves you

I'll be honest with you, Mother
That it took some time
Till I came to see the pain you must have known
When they took your child, it must have felt like dying
But I'd like you know, wherever you are
That I love you

Now your child's a mother three times over
God knows that she loves those children so
Feeling them beside me now
I really can't imagine how
You found the strength to let your baby go

How I'd love to see you Mother
Just to let you know
That the mom and dad who raised me, raised me well
And I love them more for knowing that they chose me
But I want you to know, wherever you are
That I love you

Now your child's a mother three times over
God knows that she loves those children so
Feeling them beside me now
I really can't imagine how
You found the strength to let your baby go

Yes, your child's mother now
She has a family
And she treasures them the way she does her life
And she couldn't love them more
If she had borne them
And we want you know, wherever you are
That we love you

No I couldn't love them more
If I had borne them
And we want you know, wherever you are
That we love you
