Your Mother

Your mother told me that she's still in love

With the man before your father

She cries about him when she gets too drunk

So I don't know why I bother

Getting over you

I might never get over you

The years just roll on by

What if nothing heals in time

Will I end up like your mother

She knew what love was like when it's on fire

Pure and young and special

She tells me I remind her of herself

Makes me swear I'll never settle like

Getting over you

I might never get over you

The years just roll on by

What if nothing heals in time

Will I end up like your mother

I don't wanna be anything less than the best

I want nothing less than all of someone

Wanna feel just like the first time

Back when you were mine

I'm getting over you

Oh I have to get over you

The years just roll on by

I'll make it heal in time

I won't end up like your mother
