Lyrics I can't live without my mother's love Sun Kil Moon

 922

I can't live without my mother's love


I can live with the sky falling out from above
I can live with your scorn, your sourness, your smug
I can live with growing alone if push comes to shove
But I can't live without my mother's love

I can live flying around at an impossible pace
I can live with the bad etiquette that's fallen on this place
I can live with anything you got to throw in my face
But I can't live without my mother's embrace

My mother is seventy-five
She's the closest friend I have in my life
Take her from me, I'll break down and ball
And with away like old leaves in the fall

You can be cruel all you want, talk about all my brothers
Shoot me full of holes and I won't be bothered
Judge me for my ways and my slew of ex-lovers
But don't ever dare say a bad word about my mother

When she's gone, I'll miss our slow easy walks
Playing Scrabble with the chimes of the grandfather clock
I'll even miss the times that we foughtBut mostly I'll miss being able to call her and talk

I can live without watching the classical fights
I can live without a lover beside me at night
I can live without what you might call a charmed life
But I can't live without my mother providing her light

My mother is 75
One day she won't be here to hear me cry
When the day comes for her to let go
I'll die off like a lemon tree in the snow
When the day comes for her to leave
I won't have the courage to sort through her things
With my sisters and all our memories
I cannot bear all the pain or the weight

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MY MOTHER'S LOVE of SUN KIL MOON is also present in the album Benji (2014)

Biografia

Sun Kil Moon is an American musical project founded in 2002 by Mark Kozelek, previously known for his work with Red House Painters.

Sun Kil Moon stands out for its introspective and melancholic music, characterized by poetic lyrics and delicate melodies. Kozelek sings in English with a deep and raspy vocal expression, often accompanied by acoustic guitar and piano. Among the most representative tracks are "Carissa", "This Is The Sound Of Our Love", and "Between the Bars". The group's debut album, "Ghosts of the Great Highway", dates back to 2003.
