lyrics

Where I am the ceiling’s high
The walls are two feet deep
The light slants through the windowpanes
I wake up from my sleep
There’s not a lot that we can do
I don’t know what to say
Today I won’t be coming home the same I went away

One day the Mother comes, fills your heart
Don’t say another word, it’s what you’re from, it’s who you are
The palm tree, the golden stone, the crooked street
One day the Mother lies down at your feet

A mystic told me something strange
She made me feel afraid
The tower bells rang through my bones
I fainted dead away
When the world came spinning back
I saw through different eyes
Today I won’t be coming home the same I said goodbye

One day the Mother comes, fills your heart
Don’t say another word, it’s what you’re from, it’s who you are
The palm tree, the golden stone, the crooked street
One day the Mother lies down at your feet

Bridge – Poem in Spanish by Pilar Pobil, (Monica’s mother)

One day the Mother comes, she pulls you close and fills your heart
You don’t say another word, it’s what you are
The palm tree, the golden stone, the crooked street
One day the Mother lies down at your feet

One day the Mother comes, she pulls you close and fills your heart
Don’t say another word, it’s what you’re from, it’s who you are
The palm tree, the golden stone, the colored glass, the crooked street
One day the Mother lies down at your feet
One day the Mother comes and lies down at your feet
