I Need a Mother Songtext
von EELS

I need a mother
I′m sorry but it's true
I need a lover
Not someone like you

I′ve been your daddy for
Too long of a time
Need a little mothering
Just once in a while

I need a mother
I'm sorry, but it's true

It′s undercover
The way it′s always been
I should have said something
But I didn't know where to begin


You′ve been taking everything
I have to give
But I don't have no more
This ain′t no way for me to live

I need a mother
I'm sorry, that′s just how it is

I need a mother
It's really nothing new
A little help sometimes
That's just what you do

I′ve been your daddy for
Too long of a time
Need a little help, you know
Just once in a while

I need a mother
I′m sorry, but it's true
