Lyrics

Mama, oh why did the summer pass by?
How do the leaves drift away?
Mama, oh why does the world turn around?
How does a child learn to play?

Mama, oh why is there fighting and war
And so much hatred in man?
Mama, oh why doesn’t God intervene
And show us his divine plan?

CHORUS
Mama, oh Mama, oh please hold me tight
Then you and I can never part
Mama, this song is my witness to you
You’ll always be in my heart
(Mama, you’re here in my heart.)

Mama, I love you the greatest of all
Even if I’ve caused you pain
And so it’s for you that I sing this song
So please listen to this refrain.

CHORUS
