Laura Branigan - Mama lyrics

rate me

(Giancarlo Bigazzi/Umberto Tozzi; English Lyrics: Diane Warren)

Mama

Remember how you warned me

That he would only hurt me?

Remember how I didn't listen then, wasn't listening?

Mama

You said I shouldn't see him

Said I didn't need him

Said "A boy like that is gonna take your heart

Just to break your heart"

Told me from the start

He would break my heart

And I guess I was a bad girl

But you just never understood

How the lovin' of that bad boy

Made your bad girl feel so good

I'd sneak out my window

We'd meet in the night deep in the darkness

He knew how to love me so right

Mama, ooh, he was a wild one

And, ooh, I was a child once

But I will never be a child again

After lovin' him

Oh, not after lovin' him

Mama

I never knew a boy's touch

Could ever teach me so much

All those nights you didn't understand

I was in good hands

Mama

If I would have listened

The kissin' I'd be missin'!

I tell you

You were wrong as you could be

He's still here with me

Sneakin' out my window

We meet in the night deep in the darkness

He knows how to love me so right

Mama

Ooh, that boy's touch

Need it so much

Mama

Ooh, that wild one

Need to feel him

Mama

Ooh, that bad boy

He gives me such joy

Mama

I'm such a bad girl

He gives me such joy

Mama
