Paroles de Mamma told me

Mamma told me
Only lonely people gonna hold me
Only those who cant help themselves, yeah
Only those who will need my shelter
Mama tells me
I believe, i believe in mamma trying
I believe in father lying
I believe in lovers crying
I believe in education, nurture and good education
Mama gave me music lessons,
Now i play the saddest songs
Is that really what mamma wanted?
For her baby to be so haunted?
Is that really what she intended?
Mamma said this:
Hold me closer
Even though im a mamma
She told me: youre just lonely
Help me help ya
Even though i know youre just helpless
Mamma said this
I believe, i believe in conversation
In good communicatin
And i believe in laughter, writing
But now all i write are melodies (melodies)
Simple, sweet, and simply haunt me
Little rhythms that scold and hold me
Only cause i know they are lonely
Mamma told me
(ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maa
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maa ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maa
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maa ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Mamma help me, im helpless, im helpless
Im tempted, im tempted
Cant you see its only loneliness
And its helpless, oh its helpless
I took what mamma said and kept it forefront in my head
And now that mammas dead
I love how you are lonely
Help me help you hold me
I take what mamma told me
And i read what mamma wrote me
And i read it to you slowly
And you told me she was lonely
Oh my mamma, she was lonely
And its all she really told me
Mamma told me
That lonely people gonna hold me
Only those who cant help themselves, yeah
Only those who will need my shelter
Mamma tells me
(ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maa
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maa
I believe in mammas trying
I believe in fathers lying,
I believe in lovers crying,
I believe in education,

I believe in mammas trying

Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maa
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maa)
