Richie:
If my time on earth was over,
Then the last thing I would do
Is to pray to God and just thank him
For blessing me with you
Chris:
What you did for me was a miracle
Every word you said was true
You were always there and protecting me
This song goes out to you
CHORUS:
Mama, I never meant to make you cry
Mama, forgive me for the times I hurt you
Mama, if I could only turn back time
My life would be complete
Mikel:
In my darkest times, you're my shinin light
I can always count on you
You were there for me, what I couldn't see
And helped me make it through
Jay:
Mama, when I was just a little child
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/mama-lyrics-us5.html ]
All the things we used to do
I will cherish all of the memories
That's why I sing this song to you
CHORUS:
Mama, I never meant to make you cry
Mama, forgive me for the times I hurt you
Mama, if I could only turn back time
My life would be complete
C-PART:
How am I to make it through the night?
How am I to live my life when you're not here by my side?
Mama you're the reason why I've become a better man
Every word you said was true, and I'll make it up to you (ohohhoo)
CHORUS: 2x
Mama, I never meant to make you cry
Mama (Mama),forgive me for the times I hurt you
Mama (Mama),if I could only turn back time
My life would be complete
Oh...Mama...
