Like  a seed in  the earth waiting  with bated  breath is  how I'm down  and out
All  the months  in the north that  don't get  light at all,  lonely all  year round
 How did I fall so far from the family tree?
 And why did you follow when you saw what happened to me?
Lover,  your mother
Will  worry half to death at  day break
 You give yourself to love like a wild animal, delivered from the plains
 Celebrate the mountain air, shivering and unprepared and desperate for decay
 Now that you're here love, don't you feel somehow undone?
 you can't feed your body on misunderstandings of love.
Lover,  your mother
 Will worry half to death at day break
 and lover, your brothers will hunt me like a dog when they wake
Follow  your mother, your father and brother back  home
Follow  your mother, your father and brother back  home
Follow  your mother, your father and brother tonight
Follow  your mother, your father and brother back home
 Lover, your mother
 Will worry half to death, when day breaks
 And lover, your brothers will hunt me like a dog, when they wake
 Follow your mother, your father and brother back home
 Follow your mother, your father and brother back home
