Mother, listen to my heart
Mother, listen to my heart
Just as one beat ends, another starts
You can hear, no matter where you are
Sister, hide our love away
From the evil we both know

It can see us through these dark days
Though they seem to darken as I go
Our love will see us through these dark, dark days sister
'Til it lights the way back home
Sister, hide our love away

It can turn the whole world upside down
Shake it 'til the sky falls to the ground.
We don't have to reap the fear they sow
Friends, as long as we hide our love away
In the good they'll never know

It can see us through these dark days
Though they seem to darken as I go
Our love will see us through these dark, dark days sister
'Til it lights the way back home
Sister, hide our love away

Mother, listen to my heart
Just as one beat ends, another starts
You can hear no matter where you are
