Текст песни Julia Jacklin - Less of a Stranger

[Verse 1]
Never gonna know you
The way that I want to
I'll never see you in the wild
You're never gonna see me through
The same eyes my friends do
Looking in from the outside

[Chorus]
Don't want her to change
Pick apart, or rearrange her
Oh, I just wish my own mother was
Less of a stranger

[Verse 2]
Ever since I left your body
Been a breathless fast swimmer
Slow on the sand
"Will the race bend back home?"
You said you hate being alone
Did you forget the starting gun was in your hand?

[Chorus]
Don't want her to change
She's always been the entertainer
Oh, I just wish my own mother was
Less of a stranger

[Verse 3]
When I look into the mirror
I see my father, when I close my eyes
I see you
When you look into the mirror
Does your father appear?
Eyes closed, do you see your mother too?

[Chorus]
Sometimes I wonder, do I intimidate her?
Do my questions and my pain
Take like skin to a razor?
Don't want her to change
Or feel bad for life's remainder
Oh, I just wish my own mother was
Less of a stranger
