Voices Songtext
von Zucchero

Voices of my roots, mist and poplar trees
Speaking to the river banks, and people on the street
Voices in my head, voices out of time
Making life complete, lying silent on my mind
Voices I no longer hear
Voices that were once so clear
I won′t let yours disappear
Mama don't cry, mama don′t cry

Voices full of memories, of carefree crazy days
Of lying doing nothing, watching summer fade
Sunday school voices, on the lips of priests
And nuns a little bolder, to follow and believe
Voices I no longer hear
Voices that were once so clear
I won't let yours disappear
Mama don't cry, mama don′t cry


It′s been a long time, mama
It's been a long, long time
It′s been a hard time, mama don't cry
It′s been a hard time

Watching the rain fall
Dropping from my eyes
I'm standing hopeful
Someway I won′t hear
The voices that have disappeared

Voices with no name, out of space and time
Voices through the distance, dreaming of the other side
Screaming masters' voices, barking at your thoughts
Where a tighten leash isn't just for dogs

Voices that don′t make a sound
Voices that are still around
I miss your voice so fine
Mama don′t cry, mama don't cry
It′s been a long time
Mama don't cry, mama don′t cry
It's been a long time
Mama don′t cry, mama don't cry
