When you're down   Nothing shows   Just somehow   She already knows   Magic bounds   Holding tight   Gentle sounds   Taking your side      Mother - she would know   Mother - 's clearing the smoke   Mother - She's a star   Mother - That's what you are      When you're down   She is close   Like the thorn   Protecting the rose      Good advice   Based on love   Helps you rise   When things getting rough      Don't forget   once you part   it's her blood   that's running your heart      When you're out   on your own   save the bridge   that's guiding you home
