With Thoughts of My Mother

Your music makes me feel a way, that I can’t explain

you give me hope

you once told me that no one is ever born alone

bringing fondness to my heart; with thoughts of my mother

you told me of your aching heart, filled with honey bees,

making honey from your darkness

Allowing me to rest, in the knowledge that

out of bad things, good things may arise

You told me that what I was looking for was never gone,

rooting me to where I am, in appreciation of what I have here

your voice gives me the chills

and your guitar, is a little wooden boat

carrying me down rivers

which roam through my mind

your lyrics are always the right words for me to hear

no matter the day

you give me freedom from this cage

providing me music to my dreams

Maybe one day, I’ll be just another young Dad in corduroys

and if I’m ever so lucky

I will thank you Nick Mulvey
