My mother said to me, what will you do?
媽媽告訴我,你將做什麼
She woke up when she was 48

I never asked her, why did you wait?

I messed up when I was 17

Karma has a way of coming clean
因果終有應
Cause if my father hadnt loved her
如果我的父親沒有愛過她
Then my God what would my mother have become
我的母親便是上帝
And if my brother hadnt fought it
如果我的哥哥沒有打她
Then my sister wouldnt turn and run

So go on let him leave, go on let him leave we said

Cause if I ever have a lover like my father had my mother

I will say

Let me go , let me go

If he wakes up before the year is out

Hell rid his sons and daughters of their doubt

And in the light of your tired eyes
