Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
My mother and I share the same bones Our tendencies careful, our tendons all sewn Bless the seamstress that stitched us, eyes heavy and lips closed Winter falls quickly on my mother and I And we brace for the cold with the warmth in our eyes We hold close to the sun when we can't see the sky My mother and I bear the same marks Whether bruises on bodies or stains on our hearts We pull at the wishbone, the year breaks apart And what if tonight The world lays down at your side Do you think we're alright Maybe, you and I Nothing could ever prepare for the plight Being held by my mother in the harsh morning light Our tears fell united in the name of our rights But we're always rebuilding my mother and I Sickness can't know you, try though it might To see you in x-rays in hospital light It can't see the soft, swinging fight in your eyes I see you always, sweet mother of mine And what if tonight The world lays down at your side Do you think we're alright Maybe, you and I "This is your bedtime song from mom to help you guys get to sleep Okay, I love you very much, I miss you Here's your bedtime song" My mother and I share the same nose, Bitten off by a blackbird while we wash summer clothes Oh sugar cookies and pockets of rye Words that you'd sing at the start of the night Oh sugar cookies and pockets of rye Words that you'd sing at the start of the night "You naughty, naughty blackbird, I need my little nose So I can sniff the rose buds when I wash the clothes I'll get a sugar cookie and hang it in a tree If you will find my little nose and bring it back to me"
