Like the calm in the eye of the storm
Or the moon in the sky in the hours before morning
You dance like the light on the hardwood floor
Back and forth
In the stillness you look right at home
Hips swinging slow and lost in the moment
You move through the room like you're there all alone
And darlin' it never gets old
You hold him close in your arms
You roll like an ocean
You whisper a song
It's gentle and strong
And you rock and you sweep me away
Mama sway
It's the way that you waltz through the night
It's the smile on your face when you stare in his eyes
I'm under the spell of a mother and child
And honey it feels just right
You hold him close in your arms
You roll like an ocean
You whisper a song
It's gentle and strong
And you rock and you sweep me away
Mama sway
The way that you move
You're steady and true
You shine like the breaking of day
Oh I'll always see you this way
You hold him close in your arms
You roll like an ocean
You whisper a song
It's gentle and strong
And you rock and you sweep me away
Mama sway
Mama sway
Mama sway
