Mama, say

Mama, say
Mama, say
Tell me how a step closer is further away

This wind leaves me alone
The land below me turns to roam
You say the water is warm
I say the current is wrong

Mama, say
Mama, say
Tell me how a step closer is further away
Oh, mama, say
Mama, say
Tell me how a step closer is further away

Oh, oh

Stepping into crowds of stone
Leaving you and I alone
In my bones will live your song
But no, no, no, no, mama, no
