Mother Always Told Me

My mother always told me

Be careful when it comes to love

Don’t get yourself in trouble

Broken hearts are way too much

My mother always told me

To take the less travelled road

But I had a point to prove her

That I could do it on my own

But I was innocent,

she was right and I was young

Looking back at photographs,

never wanted summer gone

Making angels in the snow,

didn’t care if it was cold

My mother always told me “mother knows”

Know, know, know, know

Know, know, know

Know, know, know, know

Know, know, mother knows

My mother always told me

Not to cross the line

You can only burn your bridges

One too many times

My mother always told me

You gotta have some nerve

You might not get what you want

But you’ll get what you deserve

But I was innocent,

she was right and I was young

Looking back at photographs,

never wanted summer gone

Making angels in the snow,

didn’t care if it was cold

My mother always told me “mother knows”

Know, know, know, know

Know, know, know

Know, know, know, know

Know, know, mother knows

Know, know, know, know

Know, know, know

Know, know, know, know

Know, know

Woah oh

I should’ve listened when she talked

Woah oh

She didn’t understand what I thought

But I was innocent,

she was right and I was young

Looking back at photographs,

never wanted summer gone

Making angels in the snow,

didn’t care if it was cold

My mother always told me “mother knows”
