250,000 Miles
Lyrics
Oh where is my daughter that I carried Gone to where the desert meets the sea Far from where our family's bones are buried Where mother moon walks arm in arm with me ♪ A lady's maid for ladies who are waiting She paints the toes, prepares a stranger's tea What came before she must forget or bury Or carry deep inside her silently ♪ The red lipstick faces in the alleys Their echoes and their shadows wind and wind My daughter lives in still a deeper valley And I fear I am running out of time ♪ Oh where is my daughter that I carried Gone to where the fears of men obey While mother moon hangs silently but is waiting 250, 000 thousand miles away
