I don't want to sleep with you I don't need the passion too I don't want a stormy affair to make me feel my life is heading somewhere all I want is the comfort and care just to know that my woman gives me sweet mother love <♪> I've walked too long in this lonely lane I've had enough of this same old game I'm a man of the world and they say that I'm strong but my heart is heavy and my hope is gone out in the city in the cold world outside I don't want pity just a safe place to hide mama please, let me back inside <♪> I don't want to make no waves but you can give me all the love that I crave I can't take it if you see me cry I long for peace before I die all I want is to know that you're there you're gonna give me all your sweet mother love mother love <♪> my body's aching but I can't sleep my dreams are all the company I keep got such a feeling as the sun goes down I'm coming home to my sweet mother love
