Letra da Música Oh My My de Jane Siberry

EVERYTHING YOU SAY
EVERYTHING YOU DO
WILL COME BACK
TO STAND WITH YOU

EVERYTHING YOU TRUST
EVERYTHING YOU FEEL
WILL COME BACK
TO KNEEL WITH YOU

EVERYTHING YOU SAY
EVERYTHING YOU TRY
WILL COME OUT
SOUNDING LIKE A LIE

EVERYTHING YOU TRUST
EVERYTHING YOU KNOW
WILL TURN TO DUST
WILL BLOW
AWAY

...Oh My My...

I`m cracking
I`m cracking
cracking
I`m cracking into a thousand pieces

OPEN UP YOUR EYES

mama mama please come quick
something`s wrong I`m feeling sick
mama mama I`m in a mess
I can`t lose this heaviness

oh my...oh my my my...oh my Mother

mary had a little lamb
little lamb
little lamb
mary had a little lamb
its fleece was...oh...

mama mama
I searched these hills for my sweet lamb
I carried myself up the mountain
And 5 men came out
And I laid myself down
And I looked around
And I couldn`t find my sweet lamb
I`m looking for my Bottom Line
And as soon as I find it
I`m gonna turn my life around

oh my...oh my my my...oh my Mother
oh my...oh my my my...oh my Brother

YOU`RE FLOATING IN A HARBOUR
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
AND YOU`RE LOOKING ALL AROUND YOU
AND YOU CAN`T SEE ANY LIGHT
AND THE BLACK AND STARLESS HEAVENS
WEIGH DOWN UPON YOUR SOUL
AND YOU FACE THE OPEN SEA
AND YOU`RE NOT SURE THAT YOU WANNA GO
AND YOU SCAN THE HORIZON
BUT THE ONLY LIGHT YOU FIND
IS IN THE PLACE YOU CAME FROM
THE PLACE YOU LEFT BEHIND
OH SO YOU`RE MOVING OUT
MOVING OUT
MOVING OUT
CUTTING THE CORDS
YOU DON`T KNOW WHERE YOU`RE GOING
AND YOU DON`T HAVE ANY MAPS
AND THE ONLY THING YOU`RE SURE OF
IS YOU AIN`T...GOING...BACK

1. YOU WILL BE BORN INTO A STRANGE AND DESOLATE PLACE.
2. IT WILL BE CALLED "THE AVERAGE HOME."
3. THE TIMES WILL BE RESTLESS AND FULL OF UNCERTAINTY.
4. YOU WILL SILENTLY QUESTION THIS OF YOUR MOTHER AS YOU WATCH HER MOVE AWAY.

Precious Candles
YOUR LIGHT IS YOUR OWN
Is LIFE not Precious?...
YOUR LIGHT IS YOUR OWN

mama mama
please come quick
take me home from school
I feel so sick

mama mama
something`s wrong
my heart is breaking
but I don`t know why

oh my...oh my my my...oh my Mother
oh my...oh my my my...oh my Brother

5. THERE WILL BE NO ANSWER.
6. YOU WILL BEGIN THE LONG PROCESS OF SHUTTING DOWN.
7. YOUR COUNTENANCE WILL REFLECT LESS LIGHT AND LATER WHEN YOU LOOK
AT PICTURES OF YOURSELF YOU WILL WONDER.
8. YOU WILL GIVE UP YOUR BACKBONE TO THE T.V. AND ACCEPT A VALUE SYSTEM
9. PUTTING FORTH LIES, HATRED AND INTOLERANCE IN THE NAME OF LOVE AS ACCEPTABLE.
10. NO ONE WILL STEP FORWARD FROM THE SHADOWS SAYING: "EXPECT THIS, IT IS PART OF THE PATH."
11. YOU WILL DISCOVER DRUGS AND ALCOHOL.
12. YOU WILL INSTINCTIVELY MOVE TOWARDS YOUR OWN BOTTOM LINE.

Precious Candles
YOUR LIGHT IS YOUR OWN
Precious Candles
YOUR LIGHT IS YOUR OWN

mama mama please come quick
hold my head I feel so sick
mama mama let me come home
wrap me up I can`t get warm

oh my...oh my my my...oh my Mother
oh my...oh my my my...oh my Brother

13. YOU WILL RUSH HEADLONG TOWARDS YOUR BOTTOM LINE IN AN INSTINCTIVE ATTEMPT TO HEAL.
14. YOU WILL GO TO AA TO LEARN WHAT YOU SHOULD HAVE LEARNED IN SUNDAY SCHOOL.
15. AND THEN YOU WILL GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO CRY. AND YOU WILL CRY AND CRY AND CRY.
16. AND YOUR FRIENDS WILL MOVE AWAY NERVOUSLY AND YOU`LL FEEL LIKE A FOOL.
17. AND NO ONE WILL STEP FORWARD FROM THE SHADOWS SAYING
18. "THE JOURNEY FORWARD INCLUDES MOVEMENT INTO DESPAIR."
19. AND YOU WILL BE GATHERING STRENGTH
20. EVEN AS YOU DON`T UNDERSTAND.
21. AND CERTAIN WORDS LIKE LOVE AND...
22. INTEGRITY WILL BE DRAWN INTO YOUR SPINE.
23. AND THEN ONE DAY...
24. YOU WILL TURN OFF THE T.V.

Precious Candles
YOUR LIGHT IS YOUR OWN
Precious Candles
YOUR LIGHT IS YOUR OWN

mama mama something`s wrong
there`s only silence where there once was song
I keep hearing all these bells
am I healing or dying? I can`t tell.

hey ho
sail on out
sail all night
sail on with all your might
land ahead
land ho
land ho
land ho

I sure miss that little lamb
that little lamb called Puff
or...was it...Poof? or...
well, anyways, I sure miss that sweet lamb

lay down upon your pillow...
just live all you can knowing that`s all
you have to give

mama mama I almost did it
I almost carried myself up the mountainside
In my own arms
And laid myself down

there a New Strength nearby, I know
And as soon as I find my Bottom Line
I`m gonna turn my life around

I sure miss that little lamb...

here I go
