Mother Told Her Mother Told Me Lyrics by Margo Cilker

Valley Of Heart’s Delight

2023

[Verse]
Mother told her mother told me
What was out under the family tree
I don't need this town, I will always find another
Even if I often wander back again
Brother told a brother told me
What was out under the family tree
If you leave this town, you will never find another
Even if you often wander out again
[Chorus]
Oh, the love
The way it cuts
Better than a knife
Bleeding for a lifetime
[Verse]
Mother told her mother told me
What was written on the family tree
I don't need this town, I will always find another
Even if I often wander back again
Brother told a brother told me
What was hanging in the family tree
If you leave this town, we will never have to wonder
If the roots are getting water underneath
[Chorus]
Oh, the love
The way it cuts
Better than a knife
Bleeding for a lifetime
Better than a knife
Bleeding for a lifetime
Better than a knife
Bleeding for a lifetime
Better than a knife
Bleeding for a lifetime
