Contradiction Songtext
von The Kinleys

Joe was her only son
Trouble was his way of having fun
With the wrong crowd
He was heading for kingdom come

What should a mother do?
She′ll have to let go to get through
If she could
She'd send him away for his own good

It′s such a contradiction
To love someone enough to walk away
The curse of benediction
Is the pain that just won't go away


La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
It's such a contradiction

Penny was just sixteen
Answering someone else′s dream
With her child
They had what she couldn′t provide

What should a mother do?
She had to let go to get through
If she could
She wouldn't do what′s for his own good

It's such a contradiction
To love someone enough to walk away
The curse of benediction
Is the pain that just won′t go away


La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
It's such a contradiction
