I should call my mom

And tell her I'm lonely

She'd say, "Don't you cry"

Tell me not to worry

Took me 'til I'm older

For this life to show me

That I'm not always in the right

I'm still a baby in her eyes

I didn't understand

When I was a kid

The things that you would do

To make sure I could live

Oh, I refused to take your hand

In front of all my friends

But you still kept your promise

That you'd love me 'til the end

I'm sorry I've been busy chasing dreams, but I'm committed

I'll try to make things different

I should call my mom

And tell her I'm lonely

She'd say, "Don't you cry"

Tell me not to worry

Took me 'til I'm older

For this life to show me

That I'm not always in the right

I'm still a baby in her eyes

I miss you when I'm gone

And when I fall in love

I don't know what to do

Is there a rule book for this stuff?

Or that time that I got sick

And I didn't know myself

I closed the door and hid

When I should have asked for help

I'm sorry I've been busy chasing dreams, but I'm committed

I'll try to make things different

I should call my mom

And tell her I'm lonely

She'd say, "Don't you cry"

Tell me not to worry

Took me 'til I'm older

For this life to show me

That I'm not always in the right

I'm still a baby in her eyes

And I need my mom tonight
