I wish I had a little more time with you baby
Time to figure out what this could be
I dreamt of a life in a small town
There wasn't enough for you somehow
I just wish I had a little more time with you baby
Weeks and months and years they pass
And I knew it wouldn't last
When tears stream down my face
My Mama said
All the nights that end in heartbreak
Gonna pay off some day
And the pain that you're feeling
Gradually fades away
'Cos when growing up and falling in love
Giving your all may not be enough
Just trust your head and your heart
That's what my Mama said
I wish I could freeze this moment just never let it end
Walking through the snow and you're taking my hand
All of those late nights on your couch
When we just talked until midnight
I just wish I could freeze this moment babe
Weeks and months and years they pass
And I knew it wouldn't last
When tears stream down my face
My Mama said
All the nights that end in heartbreak
Gonna pay off some day
And the pain that you're feeling
Gradually fades away
'Cos when growing up and falling in love
Giving your all may not be enough
Just trust your head and your heart
That's what my Mama said
Weeks and months and years they passed
But then I found something I knew would last
Just like my Mama said
Gradually fades away
All the nights that end in heartbreak
Gonna pay off some day
And the pain that you're feeling
Gradually fades away
'Cos when growing up and falling in love
Giving your all may not be enough
Just trust your head and your heart
That's what my Mama said
That's what my Mama said
That's what my Mama said
