Mother, You're All That I Need


Oh, Mother, You're all that I need

Because stranded we are indeed.

the way you laugh will help me breathe

under stressful times such as these

 

Oh, Mother, You're all that I need.

you surely are one rare breed

you discuss, dance, sing, and smile

I wouldn't mind if we're here for a while

 

Oh, Mother, You're all that I need

on this island. we will succeed

in going home. yes, you and me!

since home is where we're together you see?
