Jack Savoretti — Mother lyrics

Lyrics

In the silence of your mind
You should ask yourself what it is That makes you who you are
In the valley of your soul you should
Take a walk but you never go that far
It’s strange that I should
Know you better than you do You lovely fool so strange
Everybody sees your light
Shine through except for you
In the window of your past
There’s a broken pane reflecting
All the things that make you sad
In the shadow of your fear
There’s no hiding place so Why do you to you run there
It’s strange that I should know
You better than you do You lovely fool
So strange that you should want
To live your whole life through
Broken and blue
You’re a martyr for the cause
But what that cause is
I’m not sure
I’m sure it ends with no Applause except for yours
In the church along my dreams
I’ll say a prayer
That one day you’ll believe
It’s strange that I should know
You better than you do You lovely fool
So strange
Everybody sees your light shine
Through except for you
You lovely fool
