Mama and her little guy
|
Barefoot on the driveway in the morning light
|
His Daddy says a¢æ©«I'll see ya, sona¢æ?
|
a¢æ©«We'll be together when summer comesa¢æ?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
This is not goodbye
|
I'll be back in a little while
|
Lift up your head, look me in the eye
|
It's ok if you need to cry
|
But this is not goodbye
|
|
It's hard to start a brand new life
|
He misses Daddy and she's no one's wife
|
First day of school, she drives him there
|
He clings to Mama a¢æ?cause he's just so scared
|
And she says
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
|
Days turn to years, and he's now eighteen
|
Wants to see the world, wants to spread his wings
|
She loves him, so she lets him go
|
Before he boards that plane, he lets her know mama
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
|
Mama's fading and it won't be long now
|
He sits beside her, his head is down
|
She says a¢æ©«I'm proud of you, you're a good mana¢æ?
|
"I'll always love you so take my hand and remember
|
This is not goodbye"
|
