Jonathan Richman As My Mother Lay Lying lyrics
As My Mother Lay Lying lyrics by Jonathan Richman
As my mother lay lying
In the nursing home bed
I paid strict attention to
The things she said
As my mother lay lying I learned
Old dreams that bothered me
Since I was little
I looked at her and in a flash
I solved the riddle
As my mother lay lying I leanrned
As my mother lie dying I learned
Some more
Now she's sleeping
In the sun
Breaking free of earthly chains
One by one
As my mother lay lying I leanrned
Now just bones
And silver hair
My restless twisting mother
Just sleeping there
As my mother lay lying I learned
As my mother lie dying I learned
Some more
Now comes the time for
One final cry
Now comes the time to
Say goodbye
As my mother lay lying I learned
As my mother lie dying I learned
Some more
