Detours
Sheryl Crow
Letra

Mother can you hold me together

It's so dark and I'm losing my way

It took all of these detours to find love

But when I did it just faded away



Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine

Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find

Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars

Mother teach me to love
With a paper thin heart



Mother your words are so healing

You speak of love, and of light, and of peace

But I've made it my course to avoid you
Just to hide from these feelings of grief

Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine

Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find

Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars

Mother teach me to love
With a paper thin heart



Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine

Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find

Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars

Mother teach me to love
With a paper thin heart



Mother, I know you are with me
You were there when I took my first breath
I can't stop looking back for the answers
I just keep coming up with regret
There are some things I just can't forget
