I Remember Mama Songtext
von Zulema

I remember Mama, seems like yesterday
I can still see that smile on her face
Oh, how she loved Papa, she never could do him wrong
But he didn′t feel the same way
I remember when the neighbors came to say that
Papa's been cheating, Mama started weeping
And it wasn′t long before the angels came
Oh, and Papa, he's never been the same again, no

Papa, why did you break her heart?
Why couldn't you tell her it was over?
Then maybe she could′ve made a brand new start
But you planted seeds of love and dreams
That she would never reap
You turned the whole world upside down
Your love was not for keep


Well, I guess the guilt was too much for Papa
And the grief too hard to bear
′Cause when morning came, I looked for Papa
But he wasn't there
Maybe he′ll find Mama where he's going
And until then, I′ll pray
That if she gives you a second chance, Papa
Please, don't throw it away

Papa, why did you break her heart?
Why couldn′t you tell her it was over?
Then maybe she could've made a brand new start
But you planted seeds of love and dreams
That she would never reap
You turned the whole world upside down
Your love was not for keep

Papa, Papa, why did you break her heart?
Why couldn't you tell her it was over?
Papa, why did you break her heart?
Why couldn′t you tell her it was over?
