Mama Don’t Know Better

I'd like to think it was circumstance
That kept you away
I'd like to think given half a chance
That you would've stayed

You were standing on the edge
Never turned to say goodbye
Now the only peace of mind, I find
(Is sometimes)

Mama don't know better
Better to forget her leaving
Just let her go
Mama stood for nothing
Gave up on your loving easy
Just let it go
So lay down your load,
Cos you only need hope where you're going
Just let it go

Been stuck on you forever
The scars start to fade
I might look a little like ya
But there's nothing else the same

You were standing on the edge,
Never turned to say goodbye,

Now the only peace of mind, I find
(Is sometimes)

Mama don't know better
Better to forget her leaving
Just let her go
Mama stood for nothing
Gave up on your loving easy
Just let it go

So lay down your load,
Cos you only need hope where you're going
Just let it go
Mama don't know better
Better to forget her leaving
Just let her go

I won't be wearing the clothes
That you bought me, I know
It sounds a little crazy
They didn't suit me back then
And I don't wanna pretend
They ever looked good on me
Keep knowing inside that sometimes

Mama don't know better
Better to forget her leaving
Just let her go
Mama stood for nothing
Gave up on your loving easy
Just let it go

Mama don't know better,
Mama don't, Mama don't know any better
Let her go
Just let it go
Let it go
