|
Mother-Father before I forget |
|
Thank you for all that you have been to me |
|
And just in case you are wondering I love you |
|
[Verse 1] |
|
I know that our difference caused |
|
Us to waste so much of our time we could have used |
|
Getting to know each and one another |
|
But now that I've grown into my own |
|
And learned some things about life |
|
I now can see that it wasn't easy to raise someone like me |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
I remember those days when you used to sit me down |
|
And try to school me about the plenty opportunities in life |
|
Hoping and wishing and praying that something would stick |
|
And somehow click within this mind of mine |
|
See you used to say, if you throw enough on the wall |
|
Something is bound to rub off |
|
And I'm here to tell you |
|
That you don't have to really worry about me at all |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Bridge] |
|
Listen now |
|
There was no limit to all the things that you've done |
|
And would have for me my sisters and brothers |
|
And I'll never understand how you would talk all day long |
|
And just as you said, in one ear and out the other |
|
Isn't it funny how things change when you get older? |
|
Now I know that I'll never find another |
|
Love like yours inside anyone else |
|
[Chorus (repeat 4x)] |
