Mother Dear - Tindersticks

Was there a time when love had failed you

And left you no place left to turn?

And was there a time when love had cradled you

And would catch you from any fall?

It’s not so serious, not so serious

Not so serious, after all

And was there a wolf that escaped from your dream

And hid behind your bedroom door?

And was there a hand that reached out and pulled you near

And would catch you from any fall?

It’s not so serious, not so serious

Not so serious, after all

Mother dear

The sky is falling

Through this night

I am crawling around

I need the sound of your heart.
