Holy Mother (Eric Clapton / Luciano Pavarotti)

Holy Mother, where are you? 

Tonight, I feel broken in two

I've seen the stars fall from the sky

Holy Mother, can't keep from crying

Oh, I need your help this time

Get me through this lonely night

Tell me, please, which way to turn

To find myself again

Holy Mother, hear my prayer

Somehow I know you're still there

Send me, please, some peace of mind

Take away this pain

I can't wait (I can't wait)

I can't wait (I can't wait)

I can't wait any longer (can't wait any longer)

I can't wait I can't wait (I can't wait)

I can't wait for you

Holy Mother, hear my cry

I've cursed your name a thousand times

I've felt the anger running through my soul

All I need is a hand to hold

Oh, I feel the end has come

No longer my legs will run

You know I would rather be

In your arms tonight

When my hands no longer play

My voice is still, I fade away

Holy Mother, then I'll be

Lying in, safe within your arms
