Mama Said Lyrics - Singles - Allure

It was an early summer day 

But it seems like just yesterday 

When mama looked right in my face 

And told me she was going away 

If I could count all the tears that I cried 

I'd be empty and lost inside 

So I'll try to find a smile 

and hold my head up high 

Mama said, don't cry 

I'm going away up high 

Don't be afraid, be strong 

Just keep on holding on 

Mama said, don't cry 

Dry all the tears from your eyes 

Don't be afraid, be strong 

Just keep on holding on

NEW SONG: Chris Brown - Don't Check On Me Lyrics ft. Justin Bieber 

So young, but yet so wise 

So much beauty was in her eyes 

No one could quite explain 

just why she had to face the pain 

But when the day comes and hits your time 

only God knows the reason why 

She was my angel, my light, and my friend 

But one day we'll be together again 

But now that I know she has 

gone away, gone away, gone away 

There were days when I wish that I could 

run away, run away, run away 

And if I could, there would be another 

summer day, summer day, summer day 

when I could see my mother's face again

'Cause mama said, don't cry 

I'm goin away, way up high 

Don't be afraid, be strong 

Just keep on holding on 

'Cause mama said, baby don't ya cry 

Just dry all the tears from your eyes 

Don't be afraid, be strong 

Just keep holding on 

And on and on and on and on and on 

Gone away, gone away, gone away 

Run away, run away, run away 

Summer day, summer day, summer day 

Will see my mother's face again...
