Mother's Milk - text

Twenty-three
My life’s been rushing on by me
The world is still spinning
Well-past the beginning

I don’t know
If I remember a day when
I looked at the future
With bright aspirations

I don’t want responsibility
Give me time outside reality

Young again, without a care in the world
Please, take me back to the start of my youth
When I didn’t have a single thing to do
You think that I’m young, but I’m much older inside
Withered dreams and troubled times

Twenty-three
Go back in time
to where it began
Twenty-three

I want to drink
please feed me
Mother’s milk

I suck from the teat
You nourish me
You make me complete
Mother’s milk

Baby wants more
Your bosom is warm
You mustn't ignore
