Lyrics Ingrid Michaelson – Mother

Mother
Oh, mother
Is it time to wake up yet
I know I’m not ready

Mother
Oh, mother
Is it time to let go now
I know I’m not ready

Something in the woods is coming
Close enough to hear
If I close my eyes, will I disappear

Let’s just stay asleep
Cause when I sleep I still can see you
Let’s just stay asleep

Mother
Oh, mother
Do I have to come in now
Is the day almost over

Mother
Oh, mother
Do I have to move on now
Is this almost over

Someone said the sky is falling
Tell me, is it true
Everything’s alright when I’m with you

Let’s just stay asleep
Cause when I sleep I still can hear you
Let’s just stay asleep

Just close my eyes you said
You said just close my eyes

Just close my eyes you said
You said just close my eyes

Let’s just stay asleep
Cause when I sleep I still can feel you
Let’s just stay asleep
Let’s stay asleep
