Mother
(Lyrics: Williams)

Mother, why do you hurt me so?
You know I love you, like no other
Why can’t you accept me the way I am
Why don’t you understand
Don’t turn your back on me now
You know I need you and you need me too

Don’t turn your back on me now, please
Don’t turn your back on me now, please
I never wanted to make you cry
I always wanted to be the apple of your eye
Don’t turn your back on me now, mother

Why did growing up also mean growing apart
I’m still the same inside, can’t you see
A little bit older and a bit bolder
Mother… just reach out to me

Don’t turn your back on me now, please
Don’t turn your back on me now, please
I never wanted to make you cry
I always wanted to be the apple of your eye
Don’t turn your back on me now, mother…
