When the smoke leaves the sky
You will be able to see more clearly
There will be tears in your lovely eyes
I know you loved me ever so dearly

And if i get a chance to whisper
I will tell you all there is in my heart
You could see me like a mirror
Life was never supposed to be this harsh

All i wanted was to make you smile
To make you so proud of me
But the road i chose made me lost
In my illusion i couldn't see

Now hurt escapes my every breath
And it kills me that i made you cry
But i know you can still feel me
And you know that your son did try

You always did what you could
Loved me like there was no tomorrow
And if i could take back i would
That I was the one to give you sorrow




I know you still wait for me
Your eyes always at the door
I know you still have hope in me
But I've to disappoint you once more
I travelled so far away from you
And i was never ever truly gone  
It breaks me to break your heart
But Mama, i'm never coming home



We lived in a broken home
And you know life wasn't fair
You were never the same again
After the night dad disappeared

You always stood like a rock
But the cracks began to appear
There wasn't much to talk
With all the weights we shared

You always wanted to move out
But we never had any money
I grew up in that neighbourhood
Where no day was ever sunny

you always tried to warn me
But i was a rebel without a cause
I don't know what got in me
I just didn't knew how to stop

Now every chance has faded
And i don't have much time
All these years you waited
Its time to leave them behind




I know you still wait for me
Your eyes always at the door
I know you still have hope in me
But I've to disappoint you once more
I travelled so far away from you
And i was never ever truly gone  
It breaks me to break your heart
But Mama, i'm never coming home



You always taught me to love
But i grew up in so much hate
This life has been so rough
And now it's just too late

I know i can't make it
Wish i could say goodbye
Be in your arms once again
To see you before i die

Mama don't be sad
Now i can see my mistakes
I know you'll be mad
But now I'm truly awake


I won't die in hate
For i always had your love
I'll always be there
Just find me in the stars above

When the smoke leaves the sky
You will be able to see more clearly
There will be tears in your lovely eyes
But remember i loved you ever so dearly




Maybe in a different time
We could have been together
I would have come back to you
you wouldn't have to wait forever
I know you will still wait for me
Your eyes will be on that door
I would give up just anything
To be in your arms once more
I travelled so far away from you
But i was never ever truly gone  
It breaks me to break your heart
But Mama, i'm never coming home
