mother and father
There was a time I was happy in my life There was time I believed I'd live forever There was a time that I prayed to Jesus Christ There was a time I had a mother It was nice Nobody else would ever take the place of you Nobody else could do the things that you could do No one else I guess could hurt me like you did I didn't understand I was just a kid Oh mother why aren't you here with me No one else saw the things that you could see I'm trying hard to dry my tears Yes father you know I'm not so free I got to give it up Find someone to love me I got to let it go Find someone that I can care for I got to give it up Find someone to love me I got to let it go Find someone that I can care for There was a time I was happy in my life There was time I believed I'd live forever There was a time that I prayed to Jesus Christ There was a time I had a mother It was nice Oh mother why aren't you here with me No one else saw the things that you could see I'm trying hard to dry my tears Yes father you know I'm not so free I got to give it up Find someone to love me I got to let it go Find someone that I can care for I got to give it up Find someone to love me I got to let it go Find someone that I can care for My mother died when I was five And all I did was sit and cry I cried and cried and cried all day Until the neighbours went away They couldn't take my loneliness I couldn't take their phoniness My father had to go to work I used to think he was a jerk I didn't know his heart was broken And not another word was spoken He became a shadow of The father I was dreaming of I made a vow that I would never need another person ever Turned my heart into a cage a victim of a kind of rage I gotta give it up I gotta give it up I gotta give it up I've got to give it up Find someone to love me I've got to let it go Find someone that I can care for I got to give it up Find someone to love me I got to let it go Find someone that I can care for Find someone that I can care for Find someone that I can care for I got to give it up I got to give it up I got to give it up I got to give it up I got to give it up I got to give it up I got to let it go I got to give it up Oh mother Oh father I got to give it up I gotta give it up I gotta give it up I gotta give it up I gotta give it up I gotta give it up I gotta give it up
