Lift your head from the gravel pain
Momma said, lift your hand to make a better day...

Mamma said, tomorrow will be a better way
the pain will leave once you leave the ivory places of your mind
write your life with a pen of iron
let your words be weighed on a scale of riches
that speaks to the amorous heart that whispers
on tablets of passion which lay bare....

Mamma said, his love will stay
just make him happy in his place
let him have his fill in the sweet air....

Well Momma, life has been up and down
kind of beat me up
he left and found another
but it's alright love has come again
as he joins me in my being
holds my heart in his hands
makes me want to stay in this sweet air
of romance and love that has begun...

Dear Momma, Us women need a refuge
When we have lost our way
A place of retreat
A moment of love
Gracious Kiss
From a precious heart
Kisses from high
Keeps me coming back
To Romance and love that has begun....

My sweet Momma, there is love once again ...
