Mama Said - Vee Sing Zone

Mama, she has taught me well

Told me when I was young

«Son, your life’s an open book

Don’t close it 'fore it’s done»

«The brightest flame burns quickest» is what I heard her say

A son’s heart owed to mother

But I must find my way…

Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama, let my heart go

Or let this heart be still, yeah, still

Rebel my new last name

Wild blood in my veins

Apron strings around my neck

The mark that still remains

Left home at an early age

Of what I heard was wrong

I never asked forgiveness

But what is said is done

Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama, let my heart go

Or let this heart be still

Never I asked of you but never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness that I’ll take to my grave

Never I ask of you but never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness, I now take to my grave

So let this heart be still

Mama, now I’m coming home

I’m not all you wished of me

But a mother’s love for her son unspoken helped me be

Yeah, I took your love for granted

And all the things you said to me, yeah

Need your arms to welcome me

But a cold stone’s all I see…

Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama, let my heart go

Or let this heart be still

Let my heart go

Mama, let my heart go

You never let my heart go

So let this heart be still

Oh, oh, oh, whoa…

Never I asked of you but never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness that I’ll take to my grave

Never I ask of you but never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness, I now take to my grave

So let this heart be still…
