Didn't I lace her shoes
Just the same as you?
And ain't that my blood in her veins?
Didn't I love her?
Didn't I hold her?
Ain't that my blue in her eyes?

She don't need another heartbreak
Don't make it 'bout me
No mother should ever let her child
Bear the hate that she feels

Please (please)
Please (please)
Please, don't take her from me

I don't wanna see her grow
Just to be like you
I can't stand your smile on her face
I didn't ask for nothing
I never wanted war
You still have a gun to my head

She don't need another heartbreak
Don't make it 'bout me
No mother should ever let her child
Bear the hate that she feels

Please (please)
Please (please)
Please, don't take her from me

Please (please)
Please (please)
Please, don't take her from me

Didn't I lace her shoes
Just the same as you?
And ain't that my blood in her veins?
Didn't I love her?
Didn't I hold her?
Ain't that my blue in her eyes?

She don't need another heartbreak
Don't make it 'bout me
No mother should ever let her child
Bear the hate that she feels

She don't need another heartbreak
Don't make it 'bout me
No mother should ever let her child
Bear the hate that she feels

No mother should
No mother should
Don't take her from me
