With  your  love  you  gave  me  life

Not  knowing  right  from  wrong

You  always  know  that  I'll  be  strong

You  set  me  free  and  you  paid  the  price

You  inspired  me  in  my  art  with  the  rebel  in  your  heart

You  gave  nothing  for  nothing

But  the  spirit  of  you  word  happiness  could  bring

I  learned  to  always  do  the  best  I  can

You  taught  me  to  be  true  and  I  never  ran

Sometimes  I  feel  like  a  motherless  child

Left  all  alone  in  the  cold

Nowhere  to  go  so  I  run  like  the  wild

Stumbling,  falling,  crying,  calling  you

As  they  gave  nothing  in  return

You  became  their  slave  although  you  were  brave

You  still  teach  me  what  is  left  to  learn

Though  they  brought  you  to  the  grave

You  will  remain  to  ease  my  pain

Sometimes  I  feel  like  a  motherless  child

Left  all  alone  in  the  cold

Nowhere  to  go  so  I  run  like  the  wild

Stumbling,  falling,  crying,  calling  you

As  they  gave  nothing  in  return

You  became  their  slave  although  that  you  were  brave

You  still  teach  me  what  is  left  to  learn

Though  they  brought  you  to  the  grave

You  will  remain  to  ease  my  pain

Sometimes  I  feel  like  a  motherless  child

Left  all  alone  in  the  cold

Nowhere  to  go  so  I  run  like  the  wild

Left  all  alone  in  the  cold

Sometimes  I  feel  like  a  motherless  child

Left  all  alone  in  the  cold

Nowhere  to  go  so  I  run  like  the  wild

Stumbling,  falling,  crying,  calling

Stumbling,  falling,  crying,  calling  you
