Mother Dear. Songtext
It was not that long ago it first occurred to me

That my mother was a person in her own right

Now I realize how very lucky I have been

And there, but for the grace of God, go I


Mother dear - she can see inside

Mother dear - and I've nowhere to hide

Mother dear - did I spoil your plans?

Mother dear - I do the best I can



When I was a teenager I really did believe

That my parents had adopted me

And the way I carried on they must have thought

They'd brought the wrong little baby home from maternity

I'd like to say I'm sorry but my...


Mother dear - she already knows

Mother dear - she'll never let me go

Mother dear - kept me warm and safe

Mother dear - I'll never lose my faith in mother dear



If I ever get arrested by the C.I.A.

Because they take me for a foreign spy

They wonít need no lie-detector, all they'll have to do

Is make me look into my mother's eyes



Mother dear - she can see inside

Mother dear - and I've nowhere to hide

Mother dear - kept me warm and safe

Mother dear - I'll never lose my faith in mother dear



Mother dear - did I spoil your plans?

Mother dear - I do the best I can
