Hey, sweetheart
I´d love to talk to you
Oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh
Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

All good, feeling fine
Clouds stay clear up in the nick of time
Miracles, she´d always find
Every year around Christmas time
She can make my whole mood change
Change so fast, I guess it could feel strange
Even if I couldn´t sleep
You hold me tight and you would sing to me

I love you
As long as I´m alive, I´ma love you
I like you always and forever
´Cause mama´s always gonna love you

My dear baby
My sweet baby
Nobody´s gonna hurt you

´Cause mama´s always gonna love you

Always just me and you
´Til one day the boy grew and grew
Trouble I´d often brew
Doing the stuff that you ain´t want me to
Late nights, I´d hide from you
Funny somehow, you still always knew
Tiptoe, slip in past two
Knock on your door and I would sing to you

I love you
As long as I´m alive, I´ma love you
I like you always and forever
´Cause Gerald´s always gonna love you, uh

My dear mama
My sweet mama

Nobody´s gonna hurt you
´Cause Gerald´s always gonna love you

Spent my last on you
So you ain´t have to worry when the rent was due
Finally, my dreams came true
Signed a record deal like I said I´d do
Dream house, five bedrooms
You cried when I handed the keys to you
Hope that I´d make you proud
Proud of the man that I had turned into
Miss you, my heart´s still bruised
Where did you go? I´m still confused
Yeah, wish you coulda seen what

Sometimes I wanna feel pain
Sometimes the hurt is important
Sometimes my heart feels whole

Sometimes the hole is enormous
Some mornings, I start to cry
Soon as I look at your portrait
I make a French press important
Sit back, try to enjoy it
And I just, uh, think about ya
Some days my heart still feels like you broke it and tore it
Like the rug´s pulled from under me
I don´t know where the floor went
Sometimes I try to ignore it
Somehow, I´m not strong enough for it
I know I´d have to write this, knew it´d be hard to record it
Without breakin´ down in the moment
When I gave up sobriety after you passed
´Cause it was harder on my own, hope you not mad at me for it

I´m not tryna place blame for what the relapse is over
But when I look in the clouds and see that you´re flying over
Worried that you´re upset with me and you wish I was sober
I´m finally being honest because it helps with the closure
For the most part, I´m good though
My guardian angel
But some days are hard and it gets hard to stay stable
I just want you to know that I´m doing fine
And deep down inside, I´m still the same baby you cradled, yeah
Yeah, deep down inside, I´m still the same baby you cradled, uh

Ooh
Ooh

My dear mama
My sweet mama
Nobody´s gonna hurt you
´Cause Gerald´s always gonna love you

Hi, Gerald
I just though I´d call you to see how you´re doing
I´m sorry, passings are never easy
And I had a long time with her, so I, you know I had my own fit of, uh, sad feelings
Anyway, um, I just thought I´d call you to see if I could talk to you
But I will later, okay, so bye
