Mother's Day

歌詞

It's mother's day, I'm in an airport alone My daughter sounds happy on the phone I've had her picture in my head all day A mother wraps up her baby and walks away She's asleep when I get home I wake up before anyone Climb in her bed with her And hold my body next to hers Just an ordinary day, hey ay I kiss her face when she's awake She tells me about yesterday She brings me the card she made for me Molly and Bob on an apple tree And I pour her milk, cook her eggs Make her lunch, pack her bag Walk her to school, kiss her goodbye She runs inside and start to cry Just an ordinary day Just an ordinary day An ordinary day, hey ay And I see that nanny from Nepal And I thank her for the mother's day card She's bringing up someone else's son It's been four years since she's seen her own At 3, Molly's back in my arms And she takes her ball and runs off with a friend Some bad kids try to take it away She grabs it right back, she's not afraid Just an ordinary day Just an ordinary day An ordinary day, hey ay Later on I watch her sleep That same picture returns to me 6 years ago, December day A mother wraps up her baby and walks away Just an ordinary day, hey ay, ay
