jill barber – my mother’s hand lyrics
[verse 1]
i’d know that writing anywhere, i’ve seen it all my life
you’d never miss the chance to send a card
for a birthday or a birth, or an anniversary
it’s your way of saying that i’m with you where you are
when i was just a kid, there would always be
a little note tucked in my lunch just for me
a message just to say that you’re with me through the day
your way of saying that i’m really not so far
[chorus]
from your notebook on the counter to collected recipes
that you copied from the pages of ladies’ magazines
there’s a certain rеcognition any child can understand
there’s comfort in what’s writtеn in my mother’s hand
[verse 2]
and today, it is your birthday, it popped up on my screen
and i’m sorry, i forgot to send a card
i’ve been so busy with the kids and working in between
that keeping up with details has been hard
so, i put the kettle on to make a cup of tea
closed my laptop and picked up my guitar
and i put it in a song that i can sing for you
it’s my way of saying that i’m with you where you are
[bridge]
and i know you look at grandma’s old letters
’cause it brings you back to her
[chorus]
from your notebook on the counter to collected recipes
that you copied from the pages of ladies’ magazines
there’s a certain recognition any child can understand
there’s comfort in what’s written in my mother’s hand
there’s comfort in what’s written in my mother’s hand
