Harris Emmylou - This Is To Mother You lyrics

(Sienad O'Connor)

This is to mother you to comfort you and get you through

Through when your nights are lonely through when your dreams are only blue

This is to mother you

This is to be with you to hold you and to kiss you too

For when you need me I will do what your own mother didn't do

Which is to mother you

All the pain that you have known all the violence in your soul

All the wrong things you have done I will take from you when I come

All mistakes made in distress all your unhappiness

I will take away with my kiss yes I will give you tenderness

For child I am so glad I've found you

Although my arms have always been around you

Sweet bird although you did not see me I saw you

And I'm here to mother you to comfort you and get you through

Through when your nights are lonely through when your dreams are only blue

This is to mother you
