Mother Mercy - Judith Owen

Thank you

For giving me the time to learn

I want to thank you

For letting me burn all those bridges

Let me thank you

For knowing that it wouldn’t be my day.

'Cause you may lose your mind

And you may lose your way

But this is the pursuit of happiness.

And Mother Mercy

Hear your daughter

I’m a baby in the bull rush

I’m a fish out of water

Don’t you know that I’ve done denying?

I’m crying with laughter, so come on

Smother me, mother me

'Cause love is what we’re all after.

So, thank you

For letting me sink lower than I should have

Thank you

For knowing that the pain would do me good

Thank you

For knowing that I would be understood one day.

'Cause you may lose your mind

And you may lose your way

But this is the pursuit of happiness.

And Mother Mercy

Hear your daughter

I’m a baby in the bull rush

I’m a fish out of water

Don’t you know that I’ve done denying?

I’m crying with laughter, so come on

Smother me, mother me

'Cause love is what we’re all after.
