George Michael - Mothers Pride lyrics
[George Michael - Mothers Pride lyrics]
Oh she knows she takes his hand
And prays the child will understand
At the door they watch the men go by
In the clothes that daddy wore mothers pride
Baby boy his father's eyes
He's a soldier waiting for war
Time will come he'll hold a gun
His father's son and as he grows
He hears the band
Takes the step from boy to man
And at the shore she waves her son goodbye
Like the man she did before
Mothers pride just a boy
His country's eyes
He's a soldier waving at the shore
And in her heart the time has come
To lose a son
And all the husbands, all the sons
All the lovers gone they make no difference
No difference in the end
Still hear the woman say your
Daddy died a hero in the name of god and man
Mothers pride crazy boy
His lifeless eyes
He's a soldier now forevermore
He'll hold a gun till kingdom come
And prays the child will understand
At the door they watch the men go by
In the clothes that daddy wore mothers pride
Baby boy his father's eyes
He's a soldier waiting for war
Time will come he'll hold a gun
His father's son and as he grows
He hears the band
Takes the step from boy to man
And at the shore she waves her son goodbye
Like the man she did before
Mothers pride just a boy
His country's eyes
He's a soldier waving at the shore
And in her heart the time has come
To lose a son
And all the husbands, all the sons
All the lovers gone they make no difference
No difference in the end
Still hear the woman say your
Daddy died a hero in the name of god and man
Mothers pride crazy boy
His lifeless eyes
He's a soldier now forevermore
He'll hold a gun till kingdom come
