Why did you have to die
When I was only at the age of five
So suddenly you were 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 oh...
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 died
And all your words I treasure in my heart
You left me with a smile
But my cheeks aren't always dry from all the tears
So 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 oh...
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
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
