she used to be my only enemy and never let me free
catching me in places that i knew i shouldn't be
every other day i crossed the line
i didn't mean to be so bad
i never thought you would become the friend
i never had
back then i didn't know why
why you were misunderstood
so now i see through your eyes
all that you did was love
mama i love you, mama i care
mama i love you, mama my friend
my friend
i didn't want to hear it then
but i'm not ashamed to say it now
every little thing you
said and did was right for me
i had a lot of time to think about
about the way i used to be
never had a sense of my responsibility
back then i didn't know why
why you were misunderstood
so now i see through your eyes
all that you did was love
mama i love you, mama i care
mama i love you, mama my friend
my friend
mama i love you, mama i care
mama i love you, mama my friend
you’re my friend, you’re my friend
but now i'm sure i know why,
why you were misunderstood
so now i see through your eyes
all i can give you is love
mama i love you, mama i care
mama i love you, mama my friend
my friend
mama i love you, mama i care
mama i love you, mama my friend
you're my friend
ohhh, (you’re my friend)
mama my love (you’re my friend)
ohhh, mama my love
mama i love you, mama i care
mama i love you, mama my friend
me loving you, you loving me
a love that’s true and guaranteed
me loving you, me loving you
you loving me, you loving me
a love that’s true, a love that’s true
and guaranteed, so true
