Mindless Child of Motherhood

To bare a bastard son

I was your friend, I was a fool

When we could have shared a love?
I see your face, lost without trace
Mindless child of motherhood
To be just where you are?
How long must I travel on
I know that it's not fair
To be just where you are?
But why do you hide there?
But you are so very far
I see your mind, just an empty space
How long must I travel on
I was your friend, I was a fool
I feel for you though we're far apart
I see your mind, just an empty space
Mindless child of motherhood
Mindless child of motherhood
You have lost the thing that's good
How long must I travel on
Mindless child of motherhood
How long must I travel on
You have lost the thing that's good
To be just where you are?
To be just where you are?

I feel for you though we're far apart

In dreams I have seen you
You have lost the thing that's good
I see your face, lost without trace
