She tells you how her canyon walks
Can ease a mother's fear
The trails and big groves comfort her
She feels close to god out there
But that's just how she makes it through
She's given up a lot inside
And even in those spreading trees
She'll still break down and cry
She's praying again her daughter will land
With both feet on the ground
Nobody knows which, way she'll go
Or if she'll ever come around
Maybe this time she'll finally find
The pieces that have come apart
And there'll be no more breaking
No more breaking either heart
She carries around a photograph
Of her beautiful, coltish girl
In a big white shirt, her head tossed back
A free spirit in this world
You want to forget all that she's done
And all she's compromised
You can close your eyes and believe that now
She's the same girl in disguise
Can ease a mother's fear
The trails and big groves comfort her
She feels close to god out there
But that's just how she makes it through
She's given up a lot inside
And even in those spreading trees
She'll still break down and cry
She's praying again her daughter will land
With both feet on the ground
Nobody knows which, way she'll go
Or if she'll ever come around
Maybe this time she'll finally find
The pieces that have come apart
And there'll be no more breaking
No more breaking either heart
She carries around a photograph
Of her beautiful, coltish girl
In a big white shirt, her head tossed back
A free spirit in this world
You want to forget all that she's done
And all she's compromised
You can close your eyes and believe that now
She's the same girl in disguise
