Kurt Nilsen - Mother's words lyrics

You see I don't like thunder I can't stand the rain And the wind kept coming strong It's with me on my feet again At the days are getting darker The nights get so long Another reason to remind myself That life gets sometimes rough There's a world outside this window Listen to my words It's no place for bargain and soft types Many fall off as well Don't be a blind fool If love comes along It'll swallow and spit you out just like it did to your mom So, build a bridge If you can stand on it Talk of love As you were livin' it Don't say 'I told you so' it hurts That's the way it goes Don't walk a storm If you're afraid of it Don't pick a fight If you can't handle it Stand up straight and learn to live with it It's life That's the way it goes You see it makes no difference Whatever you do As long as you find happiness You'll always find a way through And don't marry the first girl That comes a long Well I know you'll get dissapointed Take it from someone who knows So, build a bridge If you can stand on it Talk of love As you were livin' it Don't say 'I told you so' it hurts That's the way it goes Don't walk a storm If you're afraid of it Don't pick a fight If you can't handle it Stand up straight and learn to live with it It's life That's the way it goes You should have seen me Long time ago Livin' my glory days in the sun And if you can't stand it Then I tell you boy You found it out for yourself I'm only here to support you Just like a mother is suppose to do Just like a mother is suppose to do So, build a bridge If you can stand on it Talk of love As you were livin' it Don't say 'I told you so' it hurts That's the way it goes Don't walk a storm If you're afraid of it Don't pick a fight If you can't handle it Stand up straight and learn to live with it It's life That's the way it goes
