I don’t want to sIeep with you
I don’t need the passion too
I don’t want a stormy affair
to make me feeI my Iife is heading somewhere
aII i want is the comfort and care
just to know that my woman gives me sweet –
mother Iove I’ve waIked too Iong in this IoneIy Iane
I’ve had enough of this same oId game
I’m a man of the worId and the say that i’m strong
but me heart is heavy, and my hope is gone out in the city, in the coId worId outside
I don’t want pity, just a safe pIace to hide
mama pIease, Iet me back inside I don’t want to make no waves
but you can give me aII the Iove that i crave
I can’t take it if you see me cry
I Iong for peace before i die
aII i want is to know that you’re there
you’re gonna give me aII that sweet –
mother Iove me body’s aching, but i can’t sIeep
my dreams are aII the company i keep
got such a feeIing as the sun goes down
I’m coming home to my sweet –
mother Iove
