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 |
