If I Was Your Mother

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
Tell me what I've gotta do to make my life mean more to you
I could get so close it's true
If I was your mother
Would you always believe me
'Cause I'd wake up in the middle of the night just to see if you need me
Tell me there's no other to who you're telling your secrets
And would you tell me 'bout all the boys you been
Bringing home to meet me
Tell me what I've gotta 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've gotta be to make you a part of me
No one else you ever need
If I was your
Mother mother if I was your mother, mother
When love is blood you're never on trial
Love don't get deeper than a mother & child
Oh baby, I got to get that close to you
Tell me what I've gotta 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've gotta be to make you a part of me
No one else you ever need
If I was your
Mother mother if I was your mother, mother
Mother mother if I was your mother, mother
Mother mother if I was your mother, mother
