Song information
Artist: Paula Cole Album: Greatest Hits: Postcards From East Oceanside
Lyrics
I remember the pain in my mother's eyes I remember the pain of her compromise years ago I always wanted to help to make it go away I didn't know it was her freedom that she needed so
And she said to me, she said to me:
He hitch-hiked to maine We went cross-country I had to leave my home I had to raise a family We did the best we could being so young We tried to hard to build a happy home
I never knew what to say to anybody I didn't know what to do, I was far too young But everybody could feel the suffocation Underneath for facade of a happy home
And she said to me, she said to me:
Chorus
Home sweet freedom, flowing in my eyes, home sweet freedom, flowing in my mind
Sacrificed her dreams to motherhood Waiting and waiting to be understood fully Sacrificed her years to the family Waiting and waiting to be heard finally
And she said to me, she said to me..
