Broods - Mother & Father lyrics

rate me

The nights are getting shorter

I don’t know where they go

And I am getting older,

And it's starting to show.

And ever since I left my mother,

It’s much harder to know

How to make my own life here

How to make my own home.

Chorus:

I don’t want to wake up lonely

I don’t want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I have in mind!

I don’t want to wake up lonely

I don’t want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I have in mind!

Forget what I have in mind!

I remember the time

When a kiss on the hand was enough,

Cause we knew we were free

And we knew what it meant to be loved.

But ever since I left my father

It’s much harder to know

How to live my own life here

When all I need is home

Chorus:

I don’t want to wake up lonely

I don’t want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I have in mind!

I don’t want to wake up lonely

I don’t want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I have in mind!

Forget what I have in mind!

As faces start to fade

They’re slipping through my hands,

It's where my heart was made

And my feet will always land.

Chorus:

I don’t want to wake up lonely

I don’t want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I have in mind!

I don’t want to wake up lonely

I don’t want to just be fine

I don't want to keep on hoping

Forget what I have in mind!

Forget what I have in mind!

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

I don’t want to wake up lonely

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh
