Mama
Kelly Family · Best Of V.2 [2004]
When I was only at the age of 5
So suddenly you've gone
And I was left with answers hard to find
Now I think of you 'cause I'm in hunger for your warmth
That no one can replace
And I know that where I go
You're always by my side
I just want to let you know
Chorus:
Mama oh I miss you sometimes
Mama can you hear me when I cry
Mama oh I miss you sometimes
Mama can you hear me when I cry for you
Your spirit never dies
And all your words I treasure in my heart
You left me with a smile
But my cheeks aren't always dry for tears
Now I think...
Chorus
