Oconnor Sinead - Three Babies lyrics

each of these

my three babies

I will carry with me

for myself

I ask no one else will be

mother to these three

and of course

I'm like a wild horse

but there's no other way I could be

water + feed

are not tools that I need

for the thing that I've chosen to be

in my soul

my blood + my bones

I have wrapped your cold bodies around me

the face on you

the smell of you

will always be with me

each of these

my three babies

I was not willing to leave

though I tried

I blasphemed + denied

I know they will be returned to me

each of these

my babies

have brought you closer to me

no longer mad like a horse

I'm still wild but not lost

from the thing that I've chosen to be

and it's 'cos you've thrilled me

silenced me

stilled me

proved things I

the face on you

the smell of you

will always be with me.
