She used to be my only enemy and never let me free,
  Catching me in places that I know I shouldn't be,
  Ever other day I crossed the line, I didn't mean to be so bad,
  I never thought you would become the friend I never had,
  Back then I didn't know why, why you were misunderstood,
  So now I see through your eyes, all that you did was love,
  Mama I love you, Mama I care,
  Mama I love you, Mama my friend,
  My friend
  I didn't want to hear it then but I'm not ashamed to say it now,
  Every little thing you said and did was right for me,
  I had alot of time to think about, about the way I used to be,
  Never had a sense of my responsibilty
  Back then I didn't know why, why you were misunderstood,
  So now I see through your eyes, all that you did was love,
  Mama I love you, Mama I care,
  Mama I love you, Mama my friend,
  My friend
  But now I'm sure I know why, why you were misunderstood,
  So now I see through your eyes, all I can give you is love,
  Mama I love you, Mama I care,
  Mama I love you, Mama my friend,
  My friend
  Mama I love you, Mama I care,
  Mama I love you, Mama my friend,
  My friend
