Mother & Father

Mother & Father Lyrics

The nights are getting shorter
I dont know where they go
And I am getting older,
And it's starting to show.
And ever since I left my mother,
Its much harder to know
How to make my own life here
How to make my own home.

Chorus:
I dont want to wake up lonely
I dont want to just be fine
I don't want to keep on hoping
Forget what I have in mind!
I dont want to wake up lonely
I dont want to just be fine
I don't want to keep on hoping
Forget what I have in mind!
Forget what I have in mind!

I remember the time
When a kiss on the hand was enough,
Cause we knew we were free
And we knew what it meant to be loved.
But ever since I left my father
Its much harder to know
How to live my own life here
When all I need is home

Chorus:
I dont want to wake up lonely
I dont want to just be fine
I don't want to keep on hoping
Forget what I have in mind!
I dont want to wake up lonely
I dont want to just be fine
I don't want to keep on hoping
Forget what I have in mind!
Forget what I have in mind!

As faces start to fade
Theyre slipping through my hands,
It's where my heart was made
And my feet will always land.

Chorus:
I dont want to wake up lonely
I dont want to just be fine
I don't want to keep on hoping
Forget what I have in mind!
I dont want to wake up lonely
I dont want to just be fine
I don't want to keep on hoping
Forget what I have in mind!
Forget what I have in mind!
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I dont want to wake up lonely
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
