《The Rooms My Mother Made》歌词

[00:00:01] The Rooms My Mother Made - Carrie Newcomer

[00:00:08] She said "Your coat isn't new but it's gonna be clean

[00:00:13] Stand up for yourself and say what you mean

[00:00:17] Look at me when I'm talkin' to you

[00:00:21] I'm talking to you "

[00:00:25] I might work like dog I might swear like a sailor

[00:00:30] I've loved her and fought her and sometimes failed her

[00:00:34] But I always come home to the rooms my mother made

[00:00:41] Don't be afraid to look behind you

[00:00:45] And take what's worth taking

[00:00:51] Leave what needs leaving behind

[00:00:59] I've washed the newborn and held hands with the dying

[00:01:04] Howled with the laughing embraced the grieving

[00:01:08] There's so much to gain

[00:01:10] And so much to lose along the way

[00:01:16] Yet I was born a woman and proud to be so

[00:01:21] Glad that I've learned what I needed to know

[00:01:24] But I always come home to the rooms my mother made

[00:01:33] Don't be afraid to look behind you

[00:01:37] And take what's worth taking

[00:01:42] Leave what needs leaving behind

[00:02:07] Don't be afraid to look behind you

[00:02:11] And take what's worth taking

[00:02:16] Leave what needs leaving behind

[00:02:24] When I stand up I can stand up strong

[00:02:29] I can burn like a coal and say what I mean

[00:02:33] I can cradle my lover's head like a treasure

[00:02:38] Whisper something fearlessly tender

[00:02:41] I always come home

[00:02:46] I always come home

[00:02:51] I always come home to the rooms my mother made
