Rachael Yamagata, John Alagia, Mike Viola - I Don't Want to Be Your Mother

Текст песни

I don’t want to be your mother
There’s two sides to each other
You gotta meet me halfway
Won’t you let me be your lover?
Don’t be no lone survivor
I’m not going anywhere
I’m just trying to tell you how I feel
This one-sided love affair
How do I get the man in you to see
I’m so much more than the mother in me?
I don’t wanna be your savior
Forgive your bad behavior
You gotta meet me half-way
'Cause there’s so much to discover
Don’t be no lone survivor
I won’t leave you in the cold
I’ll be standing right beside you
When you’re feeling all alone
The only way to set yourself free
Is letting go of the savior in me Baby, don’t you shut me out
Baby, don’t shut down on me
I’m not going anywhere
I’m not going anywhere
I only wanna bring you back to me Baby, please don’t shut me down
Time won’t bring me back to you
I’d be lying to myself (to myself)
I’d be lying to myself (to myself)
And that’s the only thing I cannot do I wanna be your sweetheart
I wanna be your lady
Oh, I wanna get swept away
Let me cry for a change
Don’t need no lone survivor
I need someone by my side
We don’t have to make it perfect
Oh, but maybe we could try
Love me for the woman that I am And I will love you for being just a man
Love me for the woman that I am And I will love you for being my man
