lyrics
Mother Daughter
I love you much more than words can say
I know you loved me in your own way
Now you're a shadow of your former self
Broken, dusty, on the shelf
Waiting for you to reappear
Waiting in relentless fear
You brought me life, air and water
Earth and fire, Mother Daughter
Protected me when I was young
Unfortunately the damage, it was done
Couldn't hide your illness away
I knew that something was wrong anyway
Waiting for you to reappear
Waiting in relentless fear
You brought me life, air and water
Earth and fire, Mother Daughter
Earth and fire, Mother Daughter
Waiting for you to reappear
Waiting in relentless fear
You brought me life, air and water
Earth and fire, Mother Daughter
Waiting for you to reappear
Waiting in relentless fear
You brought me life, air and water
Earth and fire, Mother Daughter
Earth and fire, Mother Daughter
Forever, Mother Daughter
