When I was a young girl
I heard your voice
Lost in a dream
Alone

When I was a young girl
I had no choice
You were not there
So far from home

Mother, can you hear me?
Sing your lullaby
Sounds so sweet, help me fall asleep

Mother, I can’t hear your
Voice through all these years
I can only feel you in my dreams

When the sun goes down
Stars will kiss your crown
I will be here with you, close to me

If the night is long
Love will sing a song
And I will stay with you, close to me

When I was a young girl
Father always said
Love is like a fire, with no end

Now that I am older
And he is older too
Nothing could be further from the truth
