I don't want to sleep with you,
I don't need the passion too,
I don't want a stormy affair
To make me feel my life is heading somewhere.
All I want is the comfort and care,
Just to know that my woman gives me sweet
Mother love

I've walked too long in this lonely lane,
I've had enough of this same old game,
I'm a man of the world and they say I'm strong,
But my heart is heavy and my hope is gone,
Out in the city, in the cold world outside
I don't want pity, just safe place to hide.
Mama please, let me back inside.

I don't want to make no waves,
But you can give me all the love that I crave,
I can't take if you see me cry,
I long for peace before I die.
All I want to know that you're there,
You're gonna give me all your sweet
Mother love

My body's aching, but I can't sleep,
My dreams are all the company I keep,
Got such a feeling as the sun goes down,
I'm coming home to my sweet
Mother love
