She's the sky that holds the cloudsShe's the lady of the houseA blind believer in all I dare to beThere's no safer place I've foundThan the shoulder of her white nightgownOh, I've got the best and the worst of her in meAnd I'd share her if I couldSo the wars would all be overCause she'd raise us all as friendsAnd no one would ever wonderIf somebody wanted themWe'd walk on grass that's greenerAnd our cares would all be freerIf the world had a mother like mineShe's our father's one great loveShe's the one he wanted mostShe's the light in the window of the house I grew up inShe takes the midnight callShe's the bravest of us allStill she sings in the gardenShe lets her hair down inOh, the wars would all be overCause she'd raise us all as friendsAnd no one would ever wonderIf somebody wanted themTonight would be easierAnd our dreams would all be deeperIf the world had a mother like mineDon't go away, don't go away from meOh, I understand she is a helping handStill I have to sayShe's the sky that holds the cloudsShe's the lady of our houseWe all need her, but no one more than meOh, the wars would all be overCause she'd raise us all as friendsAnd no one would ever wonderIf somebody wanted themWe'd walk on grass that's greenerAnd the dishes would all be cleanerIf the world had a mother like mineOoh, like mine*
