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
