Cletis Carr - Mother Mary songtekst
Je score:
Mary waits at the Tudor Hotel Strong and assured, yet so feminine Stands so firm, not so much for herself As for the unborn baby she carries within She's there to decide on the right thing to do Should she run away, and never look back Or to go back home and face the truth Cause her future's about to catch up her past Take your time, Mother Mary Step light so you don't fall You know, life's just like a baby We all want to walk before we crawl She looks through her bag on the marble tiles A photograph of a brown-eyed man She keeps it close, she says for her child Should he ever need to see his Dad She breathes a sigh and whispers his name Too many things still left unsaid Mostly pride, and just a little shame This world doesn't like it's mothers unwed Take your time, Mother Mary Step light so you don't fall You know, life's just like a baby We all want to walk before we crawl An old woman stares out the window, lonely and lost An old couple sits at a table, and Mary thinks, that could be us Mary waits at the Tudor Hotel Picks up her bag, makes up her mind The doors revolve like a circus carousel Takes one last look, says goodbye Take your time, Mother Mary Step light so you don't fall You know, life's just like a baby We all want to walk before we crawl
