Bathed in the water she ran every morning Smacked in the bed she turned down every night I'm strong in food she prepared for me Now I'm all grown up
Heating my hands on the very cold days Drenched in the rain almost every school game And in the middle of a scare, she's there To wake me up
I'm strong enough, I'm tough enough I'm full enough, I'm crying my mother's tears I'm warm enough, I've played enough Loved enough, I'm crying my mother's tears
Treating my cuts with her own remedies Combing my hair while she covered my knees And sent me books I was forbidden to read Educating me
I was there by her side when my grandmother died Her weakness is strength, she's unable to cry And lover's tears fell from father's eyes She was all cried out
I'm strong enough, I'm tough enough Slept enough, I'm crying my mother's tears I'm well enough, I've read enough I've loved enough, I'm crying my mother's tears
Cause I'm doing my best To keep her living the rest
I'm trying (you cry every night until dawn) To stay awake (don't make me regret you were born) I'm falling in (your faces are covered in red) I'm having public display (and your mother don't have the last word) Crashing (I'm coming from the rain) To the thunder (and don't let me hear you complain) Scattering myself (tell me nothing's real) Over the floor (you can feel my pain)
Little memories of our past Remind me of how I used to make her mad I'm crying, I'm crying
I'm strong enough, I'm tough enough Full enough, I'm crying my mother's tears She shed enough, she's pled enough Well enough, I'm crying my mother's tears
I'm strong enough, I'm tough enough I'm brave enough to face my mother's fearsTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
