Mama

Mama lay me down
Gently rock away the tears
Mama lay me down
I still need you after all these years
Mama whisper to me
Tell me to pick myself off the floor
Mama whisper to me
I haven’t the fight to fight anymore
Mama raise my head
Help me fight against the pain
Mama raise my head
Help me remember who I am again
Mama wish me sweet dreams
To put these nightmares to bed
Mama wish me sweet dreams
And a new path for my feet to tread
Mama lay me down
Gently rock away the tears
Mama lay me down
I still need you after all these years
