Mother Tongue - The King's Parade

I am slowly losing my mother tongue,

but I’ll get it back someday

There’s a boy in the woods within everyone

and he’s calling out your name

As far as you are he is never gone

he’s the word that you never give on

he’s the breath at the top of your lungs, mother tongue

ooh, ooh, oooh

ooh, ooh, oooh

you’re losing touch with roots,

it’s a heart break, you’ll never leave it down

you’re looking for the fruits of your hard labour

you lose it when it’s found

you … yourself in your money bound

you truly know your words when you hit the ground

you’re searching for the truth but your heart ache

you’re going out of bounds

you wish that you could choose from your passed days

and throw them to the ground

I am slowly losing my mother tongue,

but I’ll get it back someday

There’s a boy in the woods within everyone

and he’s calling out your name

As far as you are he is never gone

he’s the word that you never give on

he’s the breath at the top of your lungs, mother tongue

ooh, ooh

ooh, ooh

tell me please, when you’re getting down

tell me 'I'll be waiting when you hit the ground'

tell me please, won’t you come around, oooh yeah

tell me please, won’t you tell me now

tell me I’ll be fading when you hit the ground

tell me please, won’t you getting down

tell me I’ll be waiting when you make the sound

I am slowly losing my mother tongue,

but I’ll get it back someday

There’s a boy in the woods within everyone

and he’s calling out your name
