I love you, Mama you sweet I love you, Mama you sweet I love you, Mama you sweet I love you, Mama you sweet I love you, Mama you sweet With an ocean in my spirit And cracks on my lips And scars in my heart And this burden on my hips Ocean becomes heavy and tries To push its way out Through these ancient eyes And the memories in my mouth Ocean becomes tears That ebb and flow Over the lines in my face And the pain in my soul And pain hits a wall And doesn't know which way to go And ocean says I'm crying now And tells pain to follow And pain courses through Every vein, every limb Trying to find a way out Between the secrets in my skin And secrets hold on Until they finally give in And they meet up with ocean And tears again And tears hand me a shovel Saying break beneath the crust That binds earthly skin And buries all the trust Somehow trust was caught Between the cracks on my lips And the scars in my heart And this burden on my hips I love you, Mama you sweet...
