Composer : K. Sones/R. Kuppens

I was told many times

just to focus on the life that I've been given

And if someone's in your way

you just smile and you just say all is forgiven

You need to learn to see rejection

It's not a thing. It's no reflection of your makeup

Oh I would sit here I would listen

and every word I'd let it sink in

I'll remember

My Mama said

Be careful what you wish for

My Mama said

Be careful who you love

That's what my Mama said

I was told love your health over any of your wealth

It's only paper

And you need to live a life not just work until you die

You must remember that

When you talked, I always listened to you-u-u

Yeah, when you talked, I always listened to you-u-u

My Mama said

Be careful what you wish for

My Mama said

Be careful who you love

That's my what my Mama said

I was told many times

just to focus on the life that I've been given

That's what my Mama said

That's what my Mama said
