George Michael - My Mother Had A Brother

My mother had a brother
They say that I was born on
the day that he died
Someone to cling to she said
When all the noises and
the shame came calling
My mother had a brother
I thought I knew them all
I thought I knew
But she lied
I said Show me his face again
tell me again why he died
She said he couldn't wait for
the things that I've seen
She said he wasn't strong enough
he never dared to dream
a life like mine
My mother had a brother
Over sensitive and kind
Seems it all became much too much
for him It seems he took his own life
I can't imagine the
joy and pain in equal measure
Tears in the dirt and all over
your newborn treasure
I guess he had to wait until
my momma had me
I guess he couldn't wait
another moment to be free
In endless sky
But mama will you tell him
from your boy
The times they changed
I guess the world was getting warmer
And we got stronger
Mother will you
tell him about my joy
I live each day for him
The sun came out yeah and
I'm just breathing it in

My mother had a brother
Same desire different time
Seems the empty spaces tortured him
Until he took his own life
I don't know why
I waited so long for love
I just don't know what
I was thinking of
All that wasted time
But mama will you
tell him from your boy
The times they changed
I guess the world was getting warmer
While we got stronger
Mother will you tell him about my joy
I live each day with him
Your son came out yeah
And I'm still breathing it in

And I swear now that freedom is here
I'm gonna taste it all for you boy
I'm bad to the bone
I'm just a little torn
I'm making so much love
So those of us who
have nothing to fear
We've got to make damn sure
that it was worth it
I'm bad to the bone
I'm just a little stoned
I'm making so much love
I was a prisoner but he saved me
Broke into my dreams
and said Who cares
I was a prisoner so disgrace me
I'm glad to be home
And I don't believe they care
