[Verse 1]
Memories are there
Love was in the air
Can I play you a song or two?
It was all just a lover's dispute
In our times a lullaby
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll tell you all the things I fell in love with first
The stains on your shirt
Your eyes
Your nose
Your mouth
But I'm waiting for that smile to come back around
[Chorus]
Makes me wonder
How you're staying warm at night without your lover
Are you a mama's boy?
A little dance in the summer
Is she calling you or do you need some cover?
A mama's boy
A mama's boy
[Verse 2]
Take a seat in my chair
Put a pony tail in your hair
And I'll give you a rose or two
I'm only playing with you, my lover
We can step to the sound of the blues
But with you, I ain't got a clue
But I really want you, I do
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll tell you all the things I fell in love with first
The stains on your shirt
Your eyes
Your nose
Your mouth
But I'm waiting for that smile to come back around
[Chorus]
Makes me wonder
How you're staying warm at night without your lover
Are you a mama's boy?
A little dance in the summer
Is she calling you or do you need some cover?
A mama's boy
A mama's boy
[Bridge]
I told you that I want you to be my sweetie pie
Can we just have a day when the sun goes by?
Have our feelings in the skies
Where the birds are flying high?
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll tell you all the things I fell in love with first
The stains on your shirt
Your eyes
Your nose
Your mouth
But I'm waiting for that smile to come back around, around
[Chorus]
Makes me wonder
How you're staying warm at night without your lover (Lover, lover)
Are you a mama's boy?
A little dance in the summer (A little dance in the summer)
Is she calling you or do you need some cover?
A mama's boy
A mama's boy
Makes me wonder (Yeah)
How you're staying warm at night without your lover (Lover)
Are you a mama's boy?
A little dance in the summer (Oh-oh)
Is she calling you or do you need some cover?
A mama's boy
A mama's boy
