Mother I will get your coat
Soon we will be out the door
Wait until the years have gone
Mother I will try to grow
Some of us are carrying each other
Some do need to be apart
Some of us depending on each other
They'll need a home
Oh mothers
Let your daughters
Take flight
Oh mothers
Let your daughters
Take a little time
Mother I will try my best
So I better can understand
Things are passed on through our bones
We'll repeat the thoughts we know
Some of us are carrying the burden
Of the need to be ok
Some of us are running round in circles
We'll need a home
Oh mothers
Let your daughters
Take flight
Oh mothers
Let your daughters
Take a little time
To take flight
