My Mother Said Lyrics – Anneke Van Giersbergen

My mother said “I gained a friend
At the end of the heart to heart”
My mother asked, “Will you be fine
With the choices you make in your life?”

And you pick me up
And you hold me close
And you show the way
And you let me go

My father said, “Use your head
The guys upstairs, they just don’t care”
My father asked, “Will you be safe
When you are always so far away?”

And you pick me up
And you hold me close
And you show the way
And you let me go

I let the light into my life
Close my eyes before I die
And you let me go
And you sent me off

Into the sky
Always believe in me, always beside me
I’ve come this far and I’ll be going
Farther than the stars

And you pick me up
And you hold me close
And you take my hand
And you watch me grow

And you show the way
And you let me go
I let the light into my life
Close my eyes before I die

And you let me go
You let me go
My mother said, “I gained a friend”
