Rolling Stones – Have You Seen Your Mother Baby lyrics

Have you seen your mother, baby, standing in the shadow?
Have you had another, baby, standing in the shadow?
I'm glad I opened your eyes
The havenots would have tried to freeze you in ice
Have you seen your brother, baby, standing in the shadow?
I was just passing the time
I'm all alone, won't you give all your symphaty to mine?

Tell me a story about how you adore me
Live in the shadow, see through the shadow, how we
Live through the shadow, tear at shadow, how we
Hate in the shadow, and love in your shadowy life

Have you seen your lover, baby, standing in the shadow?
Has he had another, baby, standing in the shadow?
Baby, where have you been all your life?
Talking about all the people who would try anything twice

Have you seen your mother, baby, standing in the shadow?
You take your choice at this time
The brave old world or the slide to the depths of decline
