Mummy`s Love (Hidden in Anger)
Mummy’s Love. (Hidden in Anger).
I can feel my mummy's love I know it's in there somewhere.
As the hands rein down on me, I know somewhere inside she cares.
I can feel my mummy's love even though it's hidden in despair.

In the beginning
In the beginning he would wake at every peculiar sound that came from the babies crib
In the beginning he would bring me a beverage as I fed his son whilst the moon was dimly lit
