Mama

Looking through your photos
I imagine all of your dreams
I will always wonder
Who you really were before me
What did you lose?
I hope nothing too soon

Mama, who were you before we met?
Know you had some of those bigger plans

1989 on 85th and Lefferts Ave
CVS lipstick, you would go to school and work at the bank
Many men were chasing, that you'd never have in L.A
What kind of tears did you cry on your wedding day?

Mama, who were you before we met?
Know you had some of those bigger plans
