Nanci Griffith - Goodnight To A Mother's Dream Lyrics (Nanci Griffith) Flippin' bottle caps through the ring around the moon All alone on a Saturday night with the stars in bloom I am a vision of my mother's dream come true Built this house out in the hills All by my own will I've got love enough for two But it's just me and this old moon Chorus And the sailors on the water They all want the captain's daughter They want her beauty and her youth To grace their bow out on the sea Me, I'm getting older and I'm plain As plain as can be Got a bank full of mother's dreams Maybe mother just didn't see That love would be the only thing Her daughter would ever need Oh, I am the heart not taken The one thought not worth breakin' I am the late blooming rose With only her mother's dream to hold On this less traveled road Who really knows Maybe the hearts not taken Are truly made of gold I'm gonna flip one more bottle cap up at the moon I've got an early call with so much work to do But, when I go inside I'm gonna let my back door slam Mother, to tell the truth I would trade your dream away Just to hear some loved one say I love you, too Chorus Say goodnight to the moon I'll say I love you to the moon And to my mother too Buenos suenos to the moon |
