My Mother's House 가사

A slow and steady rain was falling in the countryside We were gathered in the garden the day my daddy died Although they had been separated apart for quite some time I saw mother’s tears erase the years his young widowed bride In springtime she’ll be turning sixty and be out on the town I really hope she finds a boyfriend a man who stays around Well yesterday I was heading west and now I’m headed south While I’m wandering around the world she’s wandering the house Mother do you hear the footsteps of your husband down the hall Don’t you realize the danger of being trapped inside those walls In springtime she’ll be turning sixty and be out on the town I really hope she finds a boyfriend a man who stays around And I hope one day that you will be ready Have someone strong right by your side Look back on your life and you surely regret it Or find some happiness inside Underneath the willow branches at number 29 Another crowd has gathered and they’re putting up a sign Mother she is moving on she is doing so well She put the past behind her now the house is up for sale In springtime she’ll be turning sixty and be out on the town I really hope she finds a boyfriend a man who stays around
