Electric Light Orchestra

Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) are a British rock group from Birmingham, England who released eleven studio albums between 1971 and 1986 and another album in 2001. ELO were formed to accommodate Roy Wood and Jeff Lynne's desire to create modern rock and pop songs with classical overtones. After Wood's departure following the band's debut record, Lynne wrote and arranged all of the group's original compositions and produced every album. more »

She came up from the country with a smile for everyone, 
She left her blue horizon just to find another home, 
A lonely girl who'd traveled many days, 
A lonely heart that could not find a way.

And she said Momma, it's a hard life now you´re gone, 
Momma, it's so hard to carry on, 
And I fell I´m a fool who lost it all, 
You used to make it all so very clear 
That life must go on though the end is near, 
Oh Momma, it´s a sad and lonely life.

A misty mornin rider she came wanderin through the hills, 
A wanderin soul appearin over rainy window sills, 
A loser in her heart but in her face, 
A smile for everyone under God´s grace.

And she said Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone, 
Momma, it's so hard to carry on, 
And I fell I'm a fool who lost it all, 
You used to make it all so very clear 
That life must go on though the end is near, 
Oh Momma, it's a sad and lonely life.

Midnight maiden madness,what to search for in this place, 
Gateway to the city, night sky shadows on her face, 
A lady lost in nowhere but her stare, 
Leaves the world, her life to start somewhere.

And she said Momma, it's a hard life now you´re gone, 
Momma, it's so hard to carry on, 
And I fell I´m a fool who lost it all, 
You used to make it all so very clear 
That life must go on though the end is near, 
Oh Momma, it's a sad and lonely life.
