lyrics

Momma Says if he's your horse it'll come back
But don't you ever go chasing for that stag
At the same time if he's going to come back
Don't you dare, let him in

Well I say Momma I don't understand these changes
All I know is that I sleep alone at night
So if he come back round I'm afraid that I might save him
From these tears our lonely hearts are crying tonight

Been feeling like a storm's been coming in
Like any day the sky will fall
And every lullaby I sing this restless heart
Reminds me just how fragile we are

Well I say Momma I don't understand these changes
All I know is that I sleep alone at night
So if he come back round I'm afraid that I might save him
From these tears our lonely hearts are crying tonight

Said the ocean to the clouds
Well you may be far away but I feel you all the same inside my arms
We're reflected in the stars
With hopes and dreams on hire things
But here on earth the walking still comes hard

And I don't understand these changes
All I know is that I sleep alone at night
So if he come back round I'm afraid that I might save him
From these tears our lonely hearts are crying tonight
