Candlebox Lyrics

Mothers Dream

I'm flipping through these pages
My memory seems jaded
A lot's been lost since my mothers dream
But these sudden flashing colours
Close my eyes
Only seven
Full of life
Feel my heart it's aching over
Feel my heart it's aching over

And I,
I remember being young
Seventeen
Yes you'd come to my house
Won't you tell me the things that I'd done to you this time
Never in my life did I feel so unsheltered
In my mind
I feel you're nothing
Good for nothing
As you told me
Yes you told me how hard I tried

These broken bones, won't you say
You carry me home now baby
My mothers dreams
She called it
My mother dreams she called it
These broken bones, won't you say
You carry me home now baby
My mothers dreams
She called it
My mothers dreams

Yes my age
Has turned direction
Cold and lonely resurrection
Lies they told me why I'm lost within your soul
But I've worn all those patches in my dreams
Always broken at the seams
Won't you help me
Won't you help me
Oh no angel

These broken bones, won't you say
You carry me home now baby
My mothers dreams
She called it
My mother dreams
