[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Well here s what I know
Even when she s sleepin
She s still dreamin about you
That s the way that it goes
Even when she s laughin
Part of her is worryin bout somethin she didn t do
[Chorus 1]
She only sits for a minute, she s a hummin bird in the livin room
She s a silhouette smilin with the weight of the world on her chest
She ll move a mountain for you by the afternoon
A mother never rests
[Verse 2]
She works in colors
It s her and the sun
Wakin up early, bringin light to everyone
She s countin on angels
And she s hopin they re there
But just in case, every time she says your name it s like a little prayer
[Chorus 2]
And there s wishin stars for the hurt and band-aids for how it feels
And the nightlight s on so even the sun gets to set
She s a stubborn believer that time and a clean house is how ya heal
So a mother never rests
[Bridge]
There ain t a broken bone or a birthday that she ll forget
She bit her lip and didn t cry the day your hatchback left
And when you hurt she hurts, that s how it is
That s how it is, I guess
[Outro]
Here s what I know
Even when I m sleepin
I m still dreamin all about you
