Swept Inside

C
By the shattered calls of a mother's
 arms
All swept-inside like the rosary
F
That fell away when her girlish 
charms
Cried out to take on motherhood
C
She waits by the windowsill
All wrapped in white and puzzling
F
What happened to the child inside?
Who ran the streets and the days at 
night...

[Chorus]
C
She says, "Nothing seems the same."
And, "I can't change a thing."
F
"My body's like a wave, breaking to 
the sea."
C
She says, "Everything seems 
strange."
Locked behind the years
F
But life is ours to find, in the 
days at night

[Verse 2]
C
There passes a stranger every eve
Who walks himself on a silver-leash
F
And in his head, the worlds asleep
Or, so the wrinkles in his hands 
believe
C
When he was young, he had a dream
To be a star, on the movie-screen
F
Now it all seems a silly lie
Continúa después del anuncio
As he walks alone
And, the days on fire

[Chorus]
C
He says, "Nothing seems the same."
And, "I can't feel a thing."
F
"My bodies like a wave, caving in on
 me"
C
He says, "Everything seems strange."
Holding back the tears
F
And he smiles just like a child
In the days at night

[Refrain]
C
Mother of song
You'll find the right way
F
To cherish in dreams
All of the small things
C
Father in time
You'll find a world
F
That's so perfect and calm
All of the small things

[Refrain]
C
Mother of song
You'll find the right way
F
To cherish in dreams
All of the small things
C
Father in time
You'll find a world
F
That's so perfect and calm
All of the small things

[Refrain]
C
Mother of song
You'll find the right way
F
To cherish in dreams
All of the small things
C
Father in time
You'll find a world
F
That's so perfect and calm
All of the small things

[Refrain]
C
Mother of song
You'll find the right way
F
To cherish in dreams
All of the small things
C
Father in time
You'll find a world
F
That's so perfect and calm
All of the small things
