More Than Blood and Bone Lyrics

She was 21 so young

With a need to find home and belong

Packed all she owned and flew away

Packed all she owned and flew away

She had long red hair, deep brown eyes

And freckles at the end of her smile

Still she had to fly away

Still she had to fly away

She had visions of a life she could call her own

Visions of a home she would make her own

Visions of life she could call her own

Oh oh oh oh

As the years went by to where she'd flown

Raised five in her home all alone

But loved them more than blood and bone

She loved them more than blood and bone

I look in her deep brown eyes see her long red hair

And know that she has watched me grow

She loves me more than blood and bone

She loves me more than blood and bone

She had visions of a life she could call her own

Visions of home she would make her own

Visions of a life she could call her own

Oh oh oh oh

Wouldn't matter what colour, I will always call you my own

Because this love is stronger than stone

I call you Mother, Mother you are all that I've known

But together we're like blood and bone

Like blood and bone
