Текст песни: Somebody's Mother + перевод

Third of November, thanks for your letter

Your picture book stretched out the length of four cars

Your story’s not easy but then what is easy?

With parents like yours and with mothers like ours?

You’ve got me thinking what really happened?

'Til now I’ve been happy to let the dogs lie

But maybe I need to find someone to bleed to

Maybe that’s you and for you maybe I

What do I know? What do I know about her?

I’ve called her an empress, I’ve called her a tempest

A force with no equal, no other

I’ve called her an angel, a rogue and a stranger

But it just hit me now, she was somebody’s mother

Suffer the children, cursed with the pattern

So it has been or at least until now

The looking glass turns to the obvious person

And I’ve seen it all and I still don’t know how

The heart won’t be silent but why seek the silence?

The question is posed now you need to explain

The books that I’ve read maybe have me prepared

But then what’s prepared in a tempest of pain?

What do I know? What do I know about it?

Well I’ve been a soldier, the bitter, the colder

I’ve been a wife and a lover

I’ve been the backbone, I’ve been the dead zone

But I remember now

That I’m somebody’s mother
