Testi Mother - Sleeping At Last

Mother

Love, bigger than the ocean
Is what you’ve given to me
You hunted down every danger
So my brother and I could swim free
In a love bigger than the ocean
The shores, they were mighty scary
But at my back, I had the mighty sea
There’s something so strange about human nature
We get so used to the gifts that we receive
Now, I’m more than grateful
For a love bigger than the ocean
I dreamt you were down by the water
You looked so proud and happy to see me
You were laying down some kind of red carpet on the beach
I said, «Mom, I’m not sure what this means.»
It was an invitation
To a love bigger than the ocean
Now, we have children of our own
We’ll dive back into the waters we have known
As you loved us, we will love them to the brim
Because of you, they were born ready to swim
In a love bigger than
A love deeper than the ocean
I still have so much I wanna tell you
I still have so much to figure out
There’s so much of you in the reflection of my life
And I hope you know I couldn’t be more proud
Of a life swimming in a love deeper than the ocean
