my life is plagued
by mistakes broken love slaps in the face
but i'm trying to care to dare to embrace your face

hug him like a brother
kiss her like a sister
let it be my mother for now

i want to find where the maid in the street
is pouring her wine
i heard she takes you in and gives you the words
you need said

if you'll be her brother
she'll kiss you like a sister
she'll even be your mother for now

hug him like a brother
kiss her like a sister
let it be my mother
let it be my father
i will be her brother
kiss her like a sister
come and be my mother forever
