Mother (Don't Cry) - Ella Vos

I tell myself the mountain shines

The clocks they turn back the dead

You’re outside, I’m inside all alone

The faces obscured by though in doubt

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry

Smoke rings, sits on the porch

They won’t let me out

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry

Woke in the night, sleeps in the daytime

The months go by seven at nine

You’re outside, I’m inside all alone

The faces obscured by though in doubt

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry

Smoke rings, sits on the porch

They won’t let me out

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry

Untie you tongue when I’m caught

While the party still goes on

You’ll be there and I’ll be gone

Don’t you wait for me too long

Don’t you wait for me too long

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry

Smoke rings, sits on the porch

They won’t let me out

Mother, don’t cry, don’t cry
