Please, don't cry, mama
Or do cry if you feel you gotta
I guess I could honor
You, if you think I oughta
No, I can't fly home tomorrow
And I'd be lyin' if I said I wanna
I'll try to love all of your sorrow
But I can't clear the path you follow
The way you cry at funny movies
The way you cry at my tattoo
Do you hate the mark he left on me?
Do you wish that it was on you?
Now I bite the apple you forbade me
And I drink the beer you detest
All in places you did not picture
This nameless gas station in the southwest
All this knowin' just might break me
It won't let me rest
If only you could just see
I only loved you (I only loved you)
The way you loved me (the way you loved me)
I only loved you my best
I know you quietly praise me
You're proud of this girl that you raised
I know you made the good times so crazy
To brace me for a world I could not save
