Storm in a teacup
ErasureI want my mummy back
Lost her to the drink
But her soul's intact
Mama said to me
Be proud of who you are
She saw Jesus in the eyes
Of a broken man
Sail away
I am learning my lesson
Mama sends her love
And Godspeed you come home soon
One little white lie was enough
To conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away
Kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for life
Then I stole away, woah
Like a thief in the night
I'm just saying
Not behind daddy's back
He takes care of her
In his overtime
He's no saint I know
As he goes around the town
Watch him cry himself to sleep
He's my daddy
Sail away
I will go it alone now
Leave my past behind
To seek fortune and fame
One little white lie was enough
To conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away
Kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for life
Then I stole away, woah
Like a thief in the night
Sail away
There's a storm in a teacup
Mama sends her love
And Godspeed you come home
One little white lie was enough
To conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away
Kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for life
Then I stole away, woah
Like a thief in the night
One little white lie was enough
To conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away
Like a prodigal son
And wished her the best for life
Then I stole away, woah
Like a thief in the night
