Goodnight To Mother's Dream - Nanci Griffith (南西·葛瑞芬)[00:00:00]
Flipping bottle caps through the ring around the moon[00:00:14]
All alone on a Saturday night with the stars in bloom[00:00:20]
I am a vision of my mother's dream come true[00:00:27]
Built this house out in the hills[00:00:31]
All by my own will[00:00:35]
I've got love enough for two[00:00:38]
But it's just me and this old moon ah[00:00:40]
And the sailors on the water[00:00:46]
They all want the captain's daughter[00:00:49]
They want her beauty and her youth[00:00:52]
To grace their bow out on the sea[00:00:55]
Me I'm getting older and I'm plain as plain as can be[00:01:01]
Got a bank full of mother's dreams[00:01:07]
Maybe mother just didn't see[00:01:10]
That love would be the only thing[00:01:13]
Her daughter would ever need[00:01:17]
I am the heart not taken[00:01:32]
The one thought not worth breaking[00:01:34]
I am the late blooming rose[00:01:40]
With only her mother's dream to hold[00:01:42]
On this less traveled road[00:01:47]
Who really knows[00:01:50]
Maybe the hearts not taken[00:01:53]
Are truly made of gold[00:01:57]
I'm gonna flip one more bottle cap up at the moon[00:02:14]
I've got an early call with so much work to do[00:02:21]
But when I go inside I'm gonna let my back door slam[00:02:27]
Mother to tell you the truth[00:02:32]
I would trade your dream away[00:02:35]
Just to hear some loved one say[00:02:39]
I love you too[00:02:41]
And the sailors on the water[00:02:45]
They all want the captain's daughter[00:02:48]
They want her beauty and her youth[00:02:52]
To grace their bow out on the sea[00:02:54]
Me I'm getting older and I'm plain as plain as can be[00:03:01]
Got a bank full of mother's dreams[00:03:06]
Maybe mother just didn't see[00:03:09]
That love would be the only thing[00:03:13]
Her daughter would ever need[00:03:16]
Say goodnight to the moon[00:03:27]
I'll say I love you to the moon[00:03:33]
And to my mother too[00:03:39]
Buenos suenos to the moon[00:03:48]
