Lyrics
I tell myself the mountain shines
The clocks they turn back the dead
You're outside, I'm inside all alone
The faces obscured by though in doubt
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
Smoke rings, sits on the porch
They won't let me out
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
Woke in the night, sleeps in the daytime
The months go by seven at nine
You're outside, I'm inside all alone
The faces obscured by though in doubt
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
Smoke rings, sits on the porch
They won't let me out
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
Untie you tongue when I'm caught
While the party still goes on
You'll be there and I'll be gone
Don't you wait for me too long
Don't you wait for me too long
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
Smoke rings, sits on the porch
They won't let me out
Mother, don't cry, don't cry
