lyrics

Mother meant the best for me when she was young and scared
She took to religion as her life filled with despair
She worked the night shift so that she could see our face
In the morning when we awoke with the sunlight full of grace

Daddy was a busy man making music for the lord
Left mom in a big old house with two kids and the chores
Born 12 years apart well there minds could not meet
And by the time that I turned 16 the divorce became complete

Tough love is a mothers love, is a fathers love
When there's none between the two
Tough love is never giving up on the ones you love
And it’s all that we can do

When you're on your own, all alone, so confused
You've lost all there is to lose

Love came on a gentle breeze and they tied the knot again
With a new companion who became their true best friend
And throughout the turmoil and the changes all the way
They cared for me in a loving way, each and every day
