Sorry, Ma, I didn't come home last night
I didn't do what you asked, stayed out 'til the morning light
I'm running around in this lost city
It's hard to keep my word, don't wait up for me
A mother's love don't ever change
A mother's love don't ever change
Even though your blood runs through my veins
I will be leaving, leaving just the same
There is no other that can take your place
Memories of my childhood time can not erase
But I've found a boy I cast my gaze upon
I wanna be with him when the day is done
A mother's love don't ever change
A mother's love don't ever change
Even though your blood runs through my veins
I will be leaving, leaving just the same
Oh, sometimes I wonder why I was put here on earth
To be with another for all the trouble it's worth
So I decided to stand all alone
But the hours roll by so sad and slow
A mother's love don't ever change
A mother's love don't ever change
Even though your blood runs through my veins
I will be leaving when I hear him call my name
