Mama told me Lyrics

Mama always told me I was special

She never doubted me

When I cry myself to sleep

She tucks me in

Last night I had a dream

She was gone

I can't shake the feeling

That loved ones have to leave

Some say, for a better place

I'm scared of what awaits

Papa told me I was brave

I always doubted that

When I strike him with my laugh

He reminds me to behave

I keep track of every word

And of each pat on the shoulder

Writing this is hard

I'm petrified by the thought his grave

I can't be that brave

I can't be that brave

(I can't be that brave)

I can't that brave

(I can't be that brave)

I can't be that brave
