[Intro – spoken / sung softly] Mama… It’s 3 AM again. I still pick up my phone to call you. [Verse 1] Kitchen light still flickers just the way you left it Your robe still hanging on the back of the door I smell your perfume in a stranger’s jacket Then I lose my breath and fall down on the floor [Pre-Chorus] I thought I had more time Thought you’d see me shine Now I’m just a child Crying in the grocery aisle [Chorus] I miss my mama So much it makes me cry Why’d you have to leave me? Why’d you have to die? Who do I run to When the world gets loud? You were my home And you’re not around [Verse 2] Holidays don’t feel the same without you singing Your handwriting on an old birthday card Every achievement feels a little hollow ‘Cause you’re the only one who loved me from the start [Pre-Chorus] I replay your voicemails ‘til the battery dies You said “baby, be strong” — but I’m not strong tonight [Chorus] [Bridge – softer, breaking] If heaven has a phone Please call me once more I’ll tell you everything Like I did before About that boy who broke me The job I didn’t take Mama, I’m so sorry For every small mistake [Outro – spoken-sung, almost a cappella] I miss my mama… I miss my mama. Why’d you have to go? I wasn’t ready… I’ll never be ready. ---
