For a Thousand Mothers

Lyrics for For a Thousand Mothers

Did you hear mother? Saying I'm wrong, but I know I'm right Did you hear father? Calling my name into the night Saying I'll never be what I am now Telling me I'll never find what I've already found It was they who were wrong And for them here's a song Did you hear baby Come back and tell you the things he's seen? Did it surprise you Being picked up at eight in a limousine? Doing the things he's accustomed to do Which at one time it seemed like a dream Now it's true And unknowing you made it all happen this way Did you hear mother? Saying I'm wrong, but I know I'm right Did you hear father? Calling my name into the night Saying I'll never be what I am now Telling me I'll never find what I've already found It was they who were wrong And for them here's a song
