Ray Davies - Mindless Child of Motherhood lyrics

I've been traveling a long time To be just where you are In dreams I have seen you But you are so very far How long must I travel on To be just where you are? How long must I travel on To be just where you are? I was your friend I was a fool I feel for you, though we're far apart I see your face Lost without trace I see your mind, just an empty space Mindless child of motherhood You have lost the thing that's good Mindless child of motherhood You have lost the thing that's good I know that it's not fair To bear a ba*tard son But why do you hide there When we could have shared a love? How long must I travel on To be just where you are? How long must I travel on To be just where you are? I was your friend I was a fool I feel for you, though we're far apart I see your face Lost without trace I see your mind, just an empty space Mindless child of motherhood You have lost the thing that's good Mindless child of motherhood You have lost the thing that's good To me
