This Is To Mother You Lyrics

This is to mother you to comfort you and get you through
Through when your nights are lonely through when your dreams are only blue
This is to mother you
This is to be with you to hold you and to kiss you too
For when you need me I will do what your own mother didn't do

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e45667-emmylou_harris~this_is_to_mother_you_lyrics.html ]
Which is to mother you
All the pain that you have known all the violence in your soul
All the wrong things you have done I will take from you when I come
All mistakes made in distress all your unhappiness
I will take away with my kiss yes I will give you tenderness
For child I am so glad I've found you
Although my arms have always been around you
Sweet bird although you did not see me I saw you
And I'm here to mother you to comfort you and get you through
Through when your nights are lonely through when your dreams are only blue
This is to mother you
