When I was inside, my mother
Her heartbeat kept me whole
In perfect time together
My mind, my body, my soul
For there's nothing so sweet
As my mother's heartbeat
Da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da
My mother's heart was beating
When I first touched the ground
Safe in my mother's keeping
Oh, I was safe and sound
And there's nothing so sweet
As my mother's heartbeat
Now my mother's heart stopped beating
One dark and dreadful day
But all I heard was weeping
The day I went away
For there's nothing so sweet
As my mother's heartbeat
Beating, inside her womb
Beating, inside my room
Nobody loves me to sleep
Beating, through my darkest night
Beating, it's my rhythm of life
The sound of my mother's heartbeat
And my mother's heart is beating
Somewhere in this earth
And at night while I lay sleeping
I'll dream sweet dreams of her
For there's nothing so sweet
As my mother's heartbeat
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
