[Verse 1]
I remember your laugh
curling through the house
Your favorite song on low
when the whole place wore out
You held my little hand
like it was gold
Now thirty years gone by
and I still feel that road
[Pre-Chorus]
Time moved fast
left me in the dust
I keep your name
like a thing I trust
I still play that tune
when the day turns cold
It hits right here
where you used to hold
[Chorus]
Mama, I miss you
I miss you, mama
Mama, I miss you
every single season
My favorite girl
my first safe place
Mama, I miss you
time can’t erase
[Verse 2]
Your record in the chair
your coat by the door
I swear I hear your steps
when the floorboard talks more
Female R&B
was your Sunday sound
Now I sing it back
when I’m feeling down
You taught me how to love
with a steady flame
Now I say your name
and it sounds the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Time moved fast
left me in the dust
I keep your name
like a thing I trust
I still play that tune
when the day turns cold
It hits right here
where you used to hold
[Chorus]
Mama, I miss you
I miss you, mama
Mama, I miss you
every single season
My favorite girl
my first safe place
Mama, I miss you
time can’t erase
[Bridge]
Thirty years gone by
still you shine in me
In every sweet refrain
you’re the memory
If I close my eyes
I can feel you near
One more song for you
I still want you here
[Final Chorus]
Mama, I miss you
I miss you, mama
Mama, I miss you
every single season
My favorite girl
my first safe place
Mama, I miss you
time can’t erase
Mama, I miss you
I miss you, mama
Mama, I miss you
you still live in me
