anaïs mitchell, mick flannery – minnesota lyrics
[verse 1: anaïs mitch+ll]
minnesota, when i was your daughter
i looked up to you
i thought that you knew all there was to know
i thought that you’d been where you had to go
[verse 2: anaïs mitch+ll]
minnesota, now that i’m your mother
i see you as you are
you’re not some shining star
not a destination
you’re a growing child
that i hope to raise right
[refrain: anaïs mitch+ll & mick flannery]
my hopes for you are my hopes for me
my dreams for you are my hopes for me
[verse 3: anaïs mitch+ll]
america, when i was your daughter
you meant the world to me
you held my every dream
you promised me protection
you promised me my freedom
[verse 4:anaïs mitch+ll]
america, now that i’m your mother
now that you’re the younger
i’m trying to hold your hand
i hope you’ll understand
that if you don’t move towards them
dreams get broken
[refrain: anaïs mitch+ll & mick flannery]
my hopes for you are my hopes for me
my dreams for you are my hopes for me
[chorus: anaïs mitch+ll, mick flannery & both ]
and i love you like a troubled child
i love you like a river wild
i love you like a mother dead
i love you like a dawning
i love you like a troubled child
i love you like a river wild
i love you like a mother dead
i love you like a dawning
[bridge: anaïs mitch+ll]
america, america
[interlude: anaïs mitch+ll & mick flannery]
my hopes for you are my hopes for me
my dreams for you are my hopes for me
[chorus: anaïs mitch+ll, mick flannery & both ]
and i love you like a troubled child
i love you like a river wild
i love you like a mother dead
i love you like a dawning
i love you like a troubled child
i love you like a river wild
i love you like a mother dead
i love you like a dawning
