Mom opened up to me today She said her love for Dad had never faded away It would have been 24 years but they decided to stray Tonight, I learned something from mom. She told me that she had given him her heart And loving someone like that doesn't end, it's where it all starts But these past years without him has torn her apart Tonight, I learned something from mom. I realized what she said was true And after some thinking, I realized my heart still belongs to you I'm scared and frightened, not sure what to do Tonight, I learned something from mom. Mom went to bed, her light's still on, suppose she's writing a letter to dad I didn't know that mom shared the same pain that I've had And to see someone understand and cry over a guy like I do lets me know that I'm not alone, and I don't feel so bad Tonight, I learned something from mom. I know now, what I have to look forward to down the road Regretting things left unsaid, feelings never showed Growing older, handling life's given load Tonight, I learned something from mom. We'll both grow used to this feeling I'm sure Now growing even closer together, more so than before A man to give our hearts to, nevermore Tonight, I learned something from mom.Birth sign: Pisces
