Lyrics

She was the one they turned to, when all else seemed to fail She was the one who listened, gave herself up through it all Only so much someone can take, propping up another's dreams And to reach such fame in the eyes of your Friends, surely you were misunderstood All those secret moments alone, where you wondered just who you were All the love you gave, seeking somewhere Else, something learned but never real Letters from sunken and poor lost souls, misread the look in your eye Taking a shot in the dark that you loved Woman you can leave them all behind And now you're pushing yourself even further Found the strength to aim for higher ground You are your mother, your father, your sister, your brother All of them with you inside Mother, father, sister, brother All of them with you inside All of them She was the one they turned to, when they needed a woman's voice She was the one who listened, gave out all the gentle advice When could you break from the image, put aside the perfect face And be wrong, be rude, be nasty and cold Stop putting people in their place Back to the woods where your brother played Back to the promises your mother made Back to the room where your sister stayed Back to the year where you felt the change You carried weights not all could see But you put them down and you danced with me Dance in the summer, dance in the rain Dance away the past, dance away the pain Out in the country you stood as the lightning cracked You told me you had to go on alone and not come back You are your mother, your father, your sister, your brother All of them with you inside Mother, father, sister, brother All of them with you inside All of them with you inside And they will never, never, never forget you They will never, never, never forget you They will never, never, never forget you They will never, never, never forget you When I met you that night, you were falling down Desperately searching for nothing sound Two perfect strangers in an unknown town We fell in together, 'til the morning came We looked harder, together, look at what we found We are over, now we are over We are stronger even though we are apart Mother, father, sister, brother Mother, father, sister, brother Mother, father, sister, brother Mother, father, sister, brother Mother, father, sister, brother Mother, father, sister All of them with you All of them with you inside
