my lullaby

maria mena

mom

please tell me what to do

i'm so disappointed in you

you said those words that made me cry

and you always wondered why

why i sing my lullaby

mom

please hurry home to me

i waited up so patiently

you sit down and you start to cry

but you never ask me why

why i sing my lullaby

why i sing my lullaby

was it my fault they lead you in the wrong direction?

was it my fault they didn't show you any affection?

i show you when i start to cry

still you always wonder why

why i sing my lullaby

mom

why love me if you're cold

you'll just get bitter then grow old

ask me when i start to weep

then i'll tell you in my sleep

why i sing my lullaby

why i sing my lullaby

why i sing my lullaby

why i sing my lullaby

why i sing my lullaby

why i sing my lullaby
