I'm coming home again But I'm not here to stay Stop trying to protect me from The shadows of the day I know you got it wrong But we all make mistakes I need you to be strong It's not your fault, you're not to blame And I said, Mama Ain't like it used to be When I would hold your hand And wobble on your knees Oh Mama I'm not that little child Don't have to be afraid To let me go and live my life Your demons took control They stole the love I craved But there's no way to change These shadows cast from yesterday Stop trying to repair The years that went to waste Although it's good advice It's much too little, much to late And I said, Mama Ain't like it used to be When I would hold your hand And wobble on your knees Oh Mama I'm not that little child Don't have to be afraid To let me go and live my life I don't see history repeating, I Won't be making the same sacrifice I've spent so long hoping And now that you've opened your eyes I'm fine I'm fine I'm, I'm fine
