Mindless Child Of Motherhood

I've been traveling a long time

To be just where you are

In dreams I have seen you

But you are so very far



How long must I travel on

To be just where you are?

How long must I travel on

To be just where you are?



I was your friend, I was a fool

I feel for you though we're far apart

I see your face, lost without trace

I see your mind, just an empty space



Mindless child of motherhood

You have lost the thing that's good

Mindless child of motherhood

You have lost the thing that's good



I know that it's not fair

To bare a bastard son

But why do you hide there?

When we could have shared a love?



How long must I travel on

To be just where you are?

How long must I travel on

To be just where you are?



I was your friend, I was a fool

I feel for you though we're far apart

I see your face, lost without trace

I see your mind, just an empty space



Mindless child of motherhood

You have lost the thing that's good

Mindless child of motherhood

You have lost the thing that's good to me
