Motherfather

[Chorus]
Motherfather, before I forget
Thank you for all that you have been to me
And just (Just) in case you are wondering, I love you
Yeah, oh

[Verse 1]
I know that our differences caused us
To waste so much of our time
We could have used getting to know each and one another
But now that I've grown into my own
And learned some things about life
I now can see that it wasn't easy to raise someone like me, yeah

[Chorus]
Motherfather (Oh), before I forget
Thank you for all that you have been to me, yeah
And just in case you are wondering, I love you
Yes, I do

[Verse 2]
Now, see, I remember those days when you used to sit me down
And try to school me about the plenty opportunities in life
Hoping and wishing and praying that something would stick
And somehow click within this mind of mine
See, you used to say, if you throw enough on the wall
Something is bound to rub off
And I'm here to tell you
That you don't have to really worry about me at all

[Chorus]
Motherfather (Yeah), before I forget
Oh, oh thank you for all that you have been to me
And just in case you are wondering, I love you
I love you, yes

[Bridge]
Listen now, see
There was no limit to all the things that you've done
And would have for me, my sisters and brothers
And I'll never understand how you would talk all day long
And just as you said, in one ear and out the other
Isn't it funny how things change when you get older
And you start to see the things for yourself
And now I know that I'll never find another love Like yours inside anyone else

[Chorus]
Motherfather (Oh), before I forget
Yeah, oh, oh, thank you for all that you have been to me
And just (Oh, oh) in case, in case you were wondering, I love you
I love you, yeah, sing it for me one more time
Motherfather (Oh-oh), before I forget
For the times I caused pain in your life, I apologize, yes
And just in case, oh, I love you, yeah, oh

[Outro]
Motherfather
Thank you for every little thing that you've done for me in my life
Lord, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lord
