"My Mother" lyrics

"My Mother"

My mother lost her heart in New York City
In 1976 she lost sight of it
My mother has taken off to the Grand Canyon
Trying to find what she belongs to
She lost her sense of that
My mother thinks of not belonging
I wish I had seen it coming
As it drug off on me

My, my mother
As you're driving through Pueblo
And you're playing your stereo
You know you're not alone
My mother
They'll be writing songs about you
And me and everyone else too
You used to sing along

Do I look at all those lonely people?
Oh, look at all those lonely people
I was lonely

My mother lost her heart in New York City
But in 2006
Inside her, she found it
