Oh Mother, I Don't Know How

Oh mother, I don't know how he spoke to me
 
When I was in a daze by the lake
 
I left him- I intended to leave, I wanted to leave,
 
I don't know what made me stay near the lake..
 
Oh mother, I don't know how, I don't know how.
 
He spoke and spoke and I listened to him,
 
And oh, how much talking suit him!
 
Lilies spread all around us,
 
And if he had stayed near, I would have drowned in them..
 
Oh mother, I don't know how.
 
The sun set, and I got scared and panicked,
 
I forgot what path I was on,
 
And I forgot how I even ran home,
 
My heart beating, and I was frightened,
 
Oh mother, I don't know how, I don't know how.
 
Yesterday he sent me a handerchief as a gift,
 
A secret, perfume, and a song,
 
And my vision got blurry,
 
And I had a feeling that brought me to tears
 
Oh mother, I don't know how, I don't know how.
