A Song For Mama

One of my favourite tunes back there in College. Released in 1997, and written by Babyface, we (my friends & I) hummed this number everywhere we could. In class, in a 3-tonner, in the bathroom, etc... I'm taking this opportunity to dedicate this song to all the mothers out there...

A Song For Mama

Boyz II Men

(Legacy: Greatest Hits Collection)

You taught me everything
And everything you've given me
I always keep it inside
You're the driving force in my life, yeah

There isn't anything
Or anyone that I can be
And it just wouldn't feel right
If I didn't have you by my side

You were there for me to love and care for me
When skies were grey
Whenever I was down
You were always there to comfort me

And no one else can be what you have been to me
You will always be you will always be the girl
In my life for all times

Chorus:
Mama, mama you know I love you
Oh you know I love you
Mama, mama you're the queen of my heart
Your love is like
Tears from the stars
Mama, I just want you to know
Lovin' you is like food to my soul
Yes it is (5x)

You're always down for me
Have always been around for me even when I was bad
You showed me right from my wrong
Yes you did

And you took up for me
When everyone was downin' me
You always did understand
You gave me strength to go on

There was so many times
Looking back when I was so afraid
And then you come to me
And say to me I can face anything
And no one else can do
What you have done for me
You'll always be
You will always be the girl in my life

Chorus
Never gonna go a day without you
Fills me up just thinking of you
I'll never go a day without my mama

Chorus
Yes you are
