If I Was Your Mother (Album Version)

If I was your mother Would you let me hold your hand Would you say you were my baby Would you always be my friend If I was your mother Could I teach you what's right Could I tell you stories, maybe tuck you in And kiss you sweet goodnight Chorus Oh, tell me what I've got to do To make my life mean more to you I could get so close it's true If I was your mother Verse 2 Would you always believe me Because I'd wake up in the middle of the night Just to see if you need me Tell me there's no other With whom you're sharing your secrets And would you tell me 'bout the boys You been bringing home to meet me Chorus Oh, tell me what I've got to do To make my life mean more to you I could get so close it's true If I was your Tell me who I've got to be To make you a part of me No one else you'd ever need If I was your Mother, mother If I was your Mother, mother Bridge When love is blood, you're never on trial It don't get deeper than a mother and child Oh baby, I got to get that close to you Chorus Tell me what I've got to do To make my life mean more to you I could get so close it's true If I was yours Tell me who I gotta be To make you a part of me There's no one else you'd ever need If I was your Mother, mother If I was your Mother, mother, yeah Mother, mother If I was your Mother, mother If I was your mother, mother If I was your mother, mother If I was your mother, mother If I was your mother If I was your mother, mother If I was your mother
