Lyrics
Mama
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What makes you happy?
What makes you smile?
And when you smile, please
Is it for real?
I know you're not one
One to pretend
Even when I was a child
You grow up too fast
And have to be brave
Braver than most strong men
That I've ever seen
Sing your song, mama
Sing it out loud
I wanna I hear your voice
It's the loveliest sound
Little girl
You can come out now
The danger's all gone
You can come out
All that you've held
Is too much to hold
So let it all go now
And you will become gold
Sing your song, mama
Sing it out loud
I wanna I hear your voice
It's the loveliest sound
Sing your song, mama
Sing it out loud
Desperately singing
You're beautiful now
Laughter and tears
Gracing your face
The music of your strength
Held up this place
Your dad is right here now
You can let go
He's holding it all now
And healing your soul
Sing your song, mama
Sing it out loud
I wanna I hear your voice
It's the loveliest sound
Sing your song, mama
Sing it out loud
Desperately singing
You're beautiful now
There's something
I'm trying to tell you and
I've tried to tell you before and
Each time that I profess it
It just leaves me wanting more and
I think you are beautiful
And I'm proud of you
What I'm trying to say is
I love you
I love you
