She cradled my heartache like it was her own She held me close with her arms aglow A harmless creature The only one I know A harmless creature The only one I know
Her voice softens As the tears grace my face Fall my angel With only the wonders of her pain to taste
Mother of this land Keeper of this earth Always looking out for something beautiful Mother of this land Keeper of this earth Always looking out for something beautiful To put me in my place
Some kind of spring is in the air Reminded me of times when things were fair Oh how these streets show me what's where As history repeats it's in the air
Her voice softens As the tears grace my face Fall my angel With only the wonders of her pain to taste
Mother of this land Keeper of this earth Always looking out for something beautiful Mother of this land, keeper of this earth Always looking out for something beautiful To put me in my place To keep me in my place
And oh, that day will come So I'll keep holding on And though this day is done To all that I'll become Mother of this land Keeper of this earth Always looking out for something beautiful
