Mama, Can You Hear Me Now?

[Verse 1] I still remember your voice at night Telling me everything would be alright You held my hand when I was small Now I'm standing here — and you're not at all I see your face in every crowd But you're not there, you're not around I wanna call, but who would answer? I'm just a ghost without an answer [Chorus] Mama, can you hear me now? I didn't know how to say it loud I thought I had more time to show How much I loved you — now you know Mama, can you see me cry? I never meant to say goodbye I kept it all inside my chest Now I'm just trying to do my best [Verse 2] I still have your old coat at home I put it on when I'm alone It smells like you, it feels so warm But it can't protect me from this storm I used to think you'd always stay Now I just wait for yesterday You gave me everything you had And I was too scared to be sad [Chorus] Mama, can you hear me now? I didn't know how to say it loud I thought I had more time to show How much I loved you — now you know Mama, can you see me cry? I never meant to say goodbye I kept it all inside my chest Now I'm just trying to do my best [Bridge] I never told you how scared I was To lose the only one I trust I thought I'd have another year Another laugh, another tear But time is cruel and life is fast I held your hand until the last And now I'm here, and you're not near And all I have is this silent fear [Verse 3] They say you're somewhere up above Watching me with endless love But I don't feel you, I don't see The warmth you used to give to me I talk to you before I sleep I pretend you're listening, I pretend you keep My words inside your heart somehow But I'm still broken, even now [Chorus] Mama, can you hear me now? I didn't know how to say it loud I thought I had more time to show How much I loved you — now you know Mama, can you see me cry? I never meant to say goodbye I kept it all inside my chest Now I'm just trying to do my best [Outro] Mama... I miss you... I miss you...
