歌词
1 2 3 4
I'm lyin' on the couch
With my little toe in a splint
Smashed it on a corner
While reachin' for my instrument
Talk shows get depressin'
And my eyes are too tired to read
Stranded in my house
Starin' outside helplessly
Thinkin' of someone else
Longin' for that special person
Who always took good care of me
Hold me mother
Cuddle me closely
Hold me mother
Talk to me softly
Lookin' at the phone
That is well within my reach
Wonderin' why I'm likin'
Someone's self sufficiency
Well it's so high at this time
I should really try to act my age
Yet her words always got me on track
In my younger days
Thinkin' of someone else
Longin' for that special person
Who always took good care of me
Stayed up with me all night long
When I was a child with the flu
Never short on sympathy
Hold me mother
Cuddle me closely
Hold me mother
Talk to me softly
Always helped me
To see the brighter side
Helped me see that everything
Would turn out right
Lyin' on the couch
Watchin' doubts with no aspirin
Cordless on the coffee table
Rings on at any instance
She tells me that she's worried
Do I have enough to eat?
I'm pretty sure that I just started
Healing rapidly
Thinkin' of someone else
Longin' for that special person
Who always took good care of me
Hold me mother
Cuddle me closely
Hold me mother
Talk to me softly
Hold me mother
Cuddle me closely
Hold me mother
Talk to me softly
