Lyrics
O’ mother of mine
O’ mother of mine there is so much that I need to say
Even so, I don’t know where to begin, how to address why I feel this way
Tell me why am I angry? When no two mortals are made the same
I have no right to judge the choices you made;
truth be known I turned out ok
Truth be known I turned out ok
O’ mother of mine I seek forgiveness upon this day
For the grief I gave when I criticised all of those memories of yesterday
Silly me being so blind I’ll understand if you turn away
Being the kind of mother you’ve always been
I would doubt you’d respond that way
I would doubt you’d respond that way
Your only crime was just to love me and nothing more than love me
That’s the way you felt inside
A mother’s just a mother, often known to smother
That’s because she bore you from her hide
O’ mother of mine I say tomorrow’s a brand new day
We can redefine the way that we love by the decisions we make today
I am choosing to love you and I am choosing to pave the way
Your love has moments when its conditional;
even the righteous are known to stray
Even the righteous are known to stray
Your only crime was to love me, to love me
Your only crime was to love me too much
