The Divine Comedy – Mother Dear lyrics
It was not that long ago it first occurred to me
That my mother was a person in her own right
Now I realize how very lucky I have been
And there, but for the grace of God, go I
Mother dear - she can see inside
Mother dear - and I've nowhere to hide
Mother dear - did I spoil your plans?
Mother dear - I do the best I can
When I was a teenager I really did believe
That my parents had adopted me
And the way I carried on they must have thought
They'd brought the wrong little baby home from maternity
I'd like to say I'm sorry but my...
Mother dear - she already knows
Mother dear - she'll never let me go
Mother dear - kept me warm and safe
Mother dear - I'll never lose my faith in mother dear
If I ever get arrested by the C. I. A.
Because they take me for a foreign spy
They won? T need no lie-detector, all they'll have to do
Is make me look into my mother? S eyes
Mother dear - she can see inside
Mother dear - and I've nowhere to hide
Mother dear - kept me warm and safe
Mother dear - I'll never lose my faith in mother dear
Mother dear - did I spoil your plans?
Mother dear - I do the best I can
That my mother was a person in her own right
Now I realize how very lucky I have been
And there, but for the grace of God, go I
Mother dear - she can see inside
Mother dear - and I've nowhere to hide
Mother dear - did I spoil your plans?
Mother dear - I do the best I can
When I was a teenager I really did believe
That my parents had adopted me
And the way I carried on they must have thought
They'd brought the wrong little baby home from maternity
I'd like to say I'm sorry but my...
Mother dear - she already knows
Mother dear - she'll never let me go
Mother dear - kept me warm and safe
Mother dear - I'll never lose my faith in mother dear
If I ever get arrested by the C. I. A.
Because they take me for a foreign spy
They won? T need no lie-detector, all they'll have to do
Is make me look into my mother? S eyes
Mother dear - she can see inside
Mother dear - and I've nowhere to hide
Mother dear - kept me warm and safe
Mother dear - I'll never lose my faith in mother dear
Mother dear - did I spoil your plans?
Mother dear - I do the best I can
