Pretenders Hymn To Her Lyrics

LET ME INSIDE YOU 
INTO YOUR ROOM 
I'VE HEARD IT'S LINED 
WITH THE THINGS YOU DON'T SHOW 
LAY ME BESIDE YOU 
DOWN ON THE FLOOR 
I'VE BEEN YOUR LOVER 
FROM THE WOMB TO THE TOMB 
I DRESS AS YOUR DAUGHTER 
WHEN THE MOON BECOMES ROUND 
YOU BE MY MOTHER 
WHEN EVERYTHING'S GONE


AND SHE WILL ALWAYS CARRY ON 
SOMETHING IS LOST 
BUT SOMETHING IS FOUND 
THEY WILL KEEP ON SPEAKING HER NAME 
SOMETHINGS CHANGE 
SOME STAY THE SAME


KEEP BECKONING TO ME 
FROM BEHIND THAT CLOSED DOOR 
THE MAID AND THE MOTHER 
AND THE CRONE THAT'S GROWN OLD


I HEAR YOUR VOICE 
COMING OUT OF THAT HOLE 
I LISTEN TO YOU 
AND I WANT SOME MORE 
I LISTEN TO YOU 
AND I WANT SOME MORE


AND SHE WILL ALWAYS CARRY ON 
SOMETHING IS LOST 
BUT SOMETHING IS FOUND 
THEY WILL KEEP ON SPEAKING HER NAME 
SOME THINGS CHANGE 
SOME STAY THE SAME
