You'll end up crying
With your mother's eyes
Pretend you can't see yourself

Could have been better
Could have been worse
You could have been yourself


Brought up in mom's arms
Nowhere to fall

Now you're out climbing
Taking it all


You'll end up crying
With your mother's eyes
Suffer that moment's pain

Could have done better
Could have done worse
Lost in your love for more


Now you're out climbing
And you should know

You'll end up crying
Wherever you may go


Brought up in mom's arms
Nowhere to fall
Now you're out climbing

Climbing to fall

You'll end up crying

With your mother's eyes
Something is lost from the start
Could have been better

Could have been worse
You're going to need me there
