Paroles de Detours

Mother can you hold me together
It's so dark and i'm losin' my way
I took all of these detours to find love
And when i did it just faded away

Now what do i do with this sweet love of mine?
Do i give it away and hope someday i'll find
Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars?
Mother, teach me to love with a paper thin heart

Ma ma ma

Mother your words are so healing
You speak of love and of life and of peace
But i made it my course to avoid you
Just to hide from these feelings of grief

Now what do i do with this sweet love of mine?
Do i give it away and hope someday i'll find
Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars?
Mother, teach me to love with a paper thin heart

Now what i do with this sweet love of mine?
Do i give it away and hope someday i'll find
Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars?
Mother, teach me to love with a paper thin heart

Mother, i know you are with me
You were there when i took my first breath
I can't stop looking back for the answers
I just keep coming up with regret
There are some things i just can't forget
