Her Mother’s House

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Björk] The space in your voice Shows the scale of your compassion The tone of your voice Reveals the space you give others [Chorus: Björk & Ísadóra Bjarkardóttir Barney] The more I love you (The more you love me) The stronger you become (The stronger I become) The less you need me (And the less I need you) [Verse 2: Björk] A dry voice Comes from a stingy heart But a moist voice Comes from abundance [Chorus: Björk & Ísadóra Bjarkardóttir Barney] The more I love you (The more you love me) The better you will survive (The better I will survive) The more freedom I give you (The more freedom you give me) [Verse 3: Björk & Ísadóra Bjarkardóttir Barney] When a mother's house (A mother's house) Has a room for each child (Each child) It's only describing (Describing) The interior of her heart (Interior of her heart) [Bridge: Ísadóra Bjarkardóttir Barney] A balloon painted with red clay With lubrication will not crack But will inflate evenly And float higher [Outro: Björk] Undo, undo, undo, undo (The four chambers) Undo, undo (Of her heart) Undo
