Guus Meeuwis - Mama Said lyrics

<b>Mama Said</b> by <i>Guus Meeuwis</i><br />mama, she has taught me well

told me when I was young

"son, your life`s an open book

don`t close it `fore its done"

"the brightest flame burns quickest"

that`s what I heard her say

a son`s heart sowed to mother

but I must find my way

let my heart go

let your son grow

mama, let my heart go

let this heart be still

yeah, still

rebel, mind your last name

wild blood in my veins

they bring 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

let this heart be still

never I ask of 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 that I`ll take to my grave

so let this heart be still

mama, now I`m coming home

I`m not all you wished of me

a mother`s love for her son

spoken, help me be

I took your love for granted

not a thing you said to me

I needed 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

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 that I`ll take to my grave

never I ask of you

but never I gave

but you gave me your emptiness that I`ll take to my grave

let this heart be still
