When you're down
Nothing shows
Just somehow
She already knows
Magic bounds
Holding tight
Gentle sounds
Taking your side
Mother - she would know
Mother - 's clearing the smoke
Mother - She's a star
Mother - That's what you are
When you're down
She is close
Like the thorn
Protecting the rose
Good advice
Based on love
Helps you rise
When things getting rough
Don't forget
Once you part
It's her blood
That's running your heart
When you're out
On your own
Save the bridge
That's guiding you home
