Mama Said Lyrics

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 owned to mother

But I must find my way



Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama let my heart go

Mama let this heart be still



Remember my new last name

Wild blood in my veins

Draping the strings around my neck

The mark that still remains

Left home at and early age

Of what I heard was wrong

I never asked forgiveness

For what I said is done



Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama let my heart go

Or let this heart be still



Never I asked you

But never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness

That I'll 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

Was spoken heavily(?)

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 your heart go

Or let his heart be still



Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama let your heart go

Or let his heart be still



Let my hear go

Mama let my heart go
