Soft, soft the firelight
On my mother's face
Reading by candlelight
Everything in its place
Outside the willow tree
Weeping in the wind
I'm a man more sinned against
Than sinning oh I swear

You know that I'll love you
No matter what you do
You know that I'll love you
No matter what
You know that I'll love you
No matter what you do
You know that I'll love you
No matter what

When she walked her feet were bare
The wind played in her hair
And when I fell she carried me
She said son, I don't care
She made me feel like I could do
Anything I wanted to
I'm a man more sinned against
Than sinning oh I swear

You know that I'll love you
No matter what you do
You know that I'll love you
No matter what
You know that I'll love you
No matter what you do
You know that I'll love you
No matter what
