Mama Said |
Mama she has taught me well |
Told me when I was young |
Son, your life's an open book |
Don't close it 'fore it's done |
The brightest flame burns quickest |
Is what I heard her say |
A son's heart's owed to mother |
But I must find my way |
Let my heart go |
Let your son grow |
Mama let my heart go |
Or let this heart be still |
Rebel my new last name |
Wild blood in my veins |
Apron strings around my neck |
The mark that still remains |
Left home at an early age |
Of what I heard was wrong |
I never asked forgiveness |
But what is said is done |
Let my heart go |
Let your son grow |
Mama let my heart go |
Or let this heart be still |
Never I ask of you |
But never I gave |
But you gave me your emptiness |
I now take to my grave |
Never I ask of you |
But never I gave |
But you gave me your emptiness |
I now take to my grave |
So let this heart be still |
Mama now I'm coming home |
I'm not all you wished of me |
But a mother's love for her son |
Unspoken, help me be |
I took your love for granted |
And all the things you said to me |
I need your arms to welcome me |
But a cold stone's all I see |
Let my heart go |
Let your son grow |
Mama let my heart go |
Or let this heart be still |
Let my heart go |
Mama let my heart go |
You never let my heart go |
So let this heart be still |
Never I ask of you |
But never I gave |
But you gave me your emptiness |
I now take to my grave |
Never I ask of you |
But never I gave |
But you gave me your emptiness |
I now take to my grave |
So let this heart be still |
