When you're down Nothing shows Just somehow She already knows Magic bounds Holding tight Gentle sounds Taking your side Mother - she would know Mother - 's clearing the smoke Mother - She's a star Mother - That's what you are When you're down She is close Like the thorn Protecting the rose Good advice Based on love Helps you rise When things getting rough Don't forget once you part it's her blood that's running your heart When you're out on your own save the bridge that's guiding you home
