In my mama's house, the men were many They stood in a line outside the door When I was a kid, they gave me candy and seashells from the ocean they'd stolen from the shore They came like princes to the wedding They left like sailors on the hill When I was younger, I was ready to receive them in the luxury of my driftwood heart and still I never wanted for affection I never needed any more All my fathers my reflection, like the moon reflects the shore Love came in a wave -- it struck like an ocean Like a tide it pulled me out to sea My mama's house is gone but her devotion lingers on in the back pages of my memory Now I live my life in splendor like some duchess or a queen but every morning, I remember when the sea breeze strikes and gathers what that woman meant to me And I never wanted for affection I never needed any more All my fathers my reflection, like the moon reflects the shore Love came in a wave -- it struck like an ocean Like a tide it pulled me out to sea My mama's house is gone but her devotion lingers on in the back pages of my memoryTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
