Tell me stories of home
Then turn my head to the wall
Let me whisper a song
Then help me finish this poem
And when mothers cry
When their babies are born
It's the story of hope
It's their story of home
And when mothers cry
When their babies are old
Whisper stories of hope
And turn their heads to the wall
And when mothers cry
When their babies are gone
Whisper songs that I wrote
Then turn their heads to the wall
