States Apart
STATES APART
Mom, you got with a man I did not approve
You knew when I graduated, I would move
We are states apart because I love you
It was drink after drink
He did not think
We are states apart because I love you
I stood out all nights
To avoid all fights
We are states apart because I love you
His kids and I did not get along
They called me names as I sang a song
We are states apart because I love you
I sang Don't You Worry Child
As my thoughts ran wild
We are states apart because I love you
I was sad
And you were mad
We are states apart because I love you
You need romance with your palm in his palm
But I still love you Mom
We are states apart because I love you
We are miles apart
But distance healed our hearts
We are states apart because I love you
