Mama

[Richie:] If my time on earth was over, Then the last thing I would do Is to pray to God and just thank him For blessing me with you [Chris:] What you did for me was a miracle Every word you said was true You were always there and protected me This song goes out to you [Chorus:] Mama, I never meant to make you cry Mama, forgive me for the times I hurt you Mama, if I could only turn back time My life would be complete [Mikel:] In my darkest times, you're my shinin light I can always count on you You were there for me, when I couldn't see And helped me make it through [Jay:] Mama, when I was just a little child All the things we used to do I will cherish all of the memories That's why I sing this song to you [Chorus:] Mama, I never meant to make you cry Mama, forgive me for the times I hurt you Mama, if I could only turn back time My life would be complete [Bridge: Everybody] How am I to make it through the night? How am I to live my life when you're bot here by my side? Mama you're the reason why i've become a better man Every word you said was true, and I'll make it up to you [Chorus: everybody] Mama, I never meant to make you cry Mama, forgive me for the times I hurt you Mama, if I could only turn back time My life would be complete
