Mama

(album: I Don't Know What I'm Doing - 2022)

I'm a stranger in the country, I'm a stranger in the town
Keep on facing forward but I'm only falling down
Somewhere I got lost and can't be found
But on a good day I can see you and you're standing in the light
Gazing out the window and I know that you're alright
I hang on to these moments when I don't sleep at night

Mama, Mama
It's hard, it's hard yeah
But I'm doing my best for you

Confession on a Sunday and we're in our best attire
"Baby stand up straight! Baby, where's your fire?"
Mama I don't know these days cuz I just fear what I desire
Me, I been so lonely I could die just for you to hold me, don't know why
I take you so for granted it's only now I realise

Mama, Mama
It's hard, so hard, so hard yeah
But I'm doing my best for you
Mama, Mama
It's hard, so hard, so hard yeah
But I'm doing my best for you

Mama, Mama
It's hard, so hard, so hard yeah
But I, I do my best like you want me to
Mama, Mama
Hey Mama
It's hard, so hard, so hard, so hard
But I, I do my best for you

Yeah I don't go to church like you want me to
But Mama you should know that I pray for you
Yeah I don't go to church like you want me to
But there's not a moment of the day I don't think of you
