Mother Like Mine

Shes the sky that holds the clouds
Shes the lady of the house
A blind believer in all I dare to be
Theres no safer place Ive found
Than the shoulder of her white night gown
Oh Ive got the best and the worst of her in me
And Id share her if I could
So the wars would all be over
Cause shed raise us all as friends
And no one would ever wonder if somebody wanted them
Wed walk on grass thats greener
And our cares would all be freer
If the world had a mother like mine
Shes our fathers one great love
Shes the one he wanted most
Shes the light in the window of the house I grew up in
She takes the midnight call
Shes the bravest of us all
Still she sings in the garden she lets her hair down in
Oh the wars would all be over
Cause shed raise us all as friends
And no one would ever wonder if somebody wanted them
Tonight would be easier
And our dreams would all be deeper
If the world had a mother like mine
Dont go away
Dont go away from me
Oh I understand
She is a helping hand
Still I have to say
Shes the sky that holds the clouds
Shes the lady of our house
We all need her
But no one more than me
Oh the wars would all be over
Cause shed raise us all as friends
And no one would ever wonder if somebody wanted them
Wed walk on grass thats greener
And the dishes would all be cleaner
If the world had a mother like mine
Ooh likemine
