The Rooms My Mother Made - Carrie Newcomer[00:00:01]
She said "Your coat isn't new but it's gonna be clean[00:00:08]
Stand up for yourself and say what you mean[00:00:13]
Look at me when I'm talkin' to you[00:00:17]
I'm talking to you "[00:00:21]
I might work like dog I might swear like a sailor[00:00:25]
I've loved her and fought her and sometimes failed her[00:00:30]
But I always come home to the rooms my mother made[00:00:34]
Don't be afraid to look behind you[00:00:41]
And take what's worth taking[00:00:45]
Leave what needs leaving behind[00:00:51]
I've washed the newborn and held hands with the dying[00:00:59]
Howled with the laughing embraced the grieving[00:01:04]
There's so much to gain[00:01:08]
And so much to lose along the way[00:01:10]
Yet I was born a woman and proud to be so[00:01:16]
Glad that I've learned what I needed to know[00:01:21]
But I always come home to the rooms my mother made [00:01:24]
Don't be afraid to look behind you[00:01:33]
And take what's worth taking[00:01:37]
Leave what needs leaving behind[00:01:42]
Don't be afraid to look behind you[00:02:07]
And take what's worth taking[00:02:11]
Leave what needs leaving behind[00:02:16]
When I stand up I can stand up strong[00:02:24]
I can burn like a coal and say what I mean[00:02:29]
I can cradle my lover's head like a treasure[00:02:33]
Whisper something fearlessly tender[00:02:38]
I always come home[00:02:41]
I always come home[00:02:46]
I always come home to the rooms my mother made[00:02:51]
