Waif, the Youngling Lyrics by Everley in The Tyger and the Lamb Album.
Waif, the Youngling Lyric
Mother, I miss you when you're away. I sometimes wonder what I would have to do or say to get you to stay. Just once, please tell me the truth, is it me or is it you I won't hold you down, and I won't hold you back. If you want the life you missed; well here's your chance to take it back. Although my love won't go away, I've had to learn to live without you. Although I'll miss you, it's easier this way. All along I've stood up for every stupid thing you've done. Every fucked up decision you've made; it's all been wrong. You seem to forget, you need me too.
