[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Mother
I forgive you
For forgetting me
You were so young
You couldn't see
[Verse 2]
Mother
Now is the time
The future will pass you by
I just have to say
Never mind
[Bridge (Puente)]
The silence used to cut so deep
The promises you couldn't keep
But growing up means letting go
Of seeds you never meant to sow
And though the shadow lingers still
It doesn't have the strength to kill
[Chorus (Estribillo)]
Oh, Mother, the river keeps on flowing
There's a life you missed, a life worth knowing
I built my world on fragile ground
But I am here and I am sound
The chapter's closed, the book is done
We walk apart beneath the same Sun
But now you have to return to Moon
