Jeff's Song Lyrics

MAMMA USED TO TRY TO TELL ME THINGS
THAT WENT IN ONE EAR AND OUT THE OTHER
SHE TOLD ME TO BUTTON THAT COAT
YOU'LL FREEZE TO DEATH
SHE TOLD ME TO STOP FIGHTIN WITH MY BROTHER


WHO KNEW BACK THEN
THAT ONE DAY I'D BE STANDING
AT HER GRAVE
LOOKIN BACK AT ALL THOSE GOOD
TIMES THAT SHE GAVE
OH YEAH LORD
HER WORDS I REMEMBER TO THIS DAY

MAMMA SAID

CHORUS:

AS I LIT THAT CANDLE
AND WATCHED IT SLOWLY BURN
I THOUGHT OF EVERY TIME MY LOVE
WAS TRULY EARNED
I THOUGHT OF ALL THE GOOD TIMES
WE HAVE EVER HAD
SINCE THE DAY YOU PUT ON THAT RING
AND WE BCAMED WED
I TURNED TO HER AND SAID:

CHORUS:

I LIGHT THIS FIRE IN THE FIREPLACE
MY HEART IT TRULY BURNS
IT GOES ON BEATING JUST FOR YOU
AS THE SEASONS SLOWLY TURN
YOUR HEART IT SEEMS I'M WINNING
NOW IT'S YOUR LOVE I'M TRYING TO EARN
SO TAKE MY HAND AND WE'LL START FROM THE BEGINNING

(NEEDS MORE WORK)

V2

WE'VE BEEN TOGETHER
THROUGH THE THICK AND THIN
WE'VE BEEN THROUGH ALL THE HARD TIMES
WHEN WE THOUGHT THE WORLD JUST MIGHT END
BUT THROUGH IT ALL YOU TOOK MY HAND
AND PUT ON THAT DIAMOND RING
AND NOW TIME'S PAST BUT WE'RE STILL HERE
TOGETHER YOU AND ME

BRIDGE:

NOW WE HAVE 2 KIDS, A HOUSE AND A FARM OF OUR OWN
WE'VE GOT A DOG, A CAT, AND FIVE HORSES, AND A BIG RED BARN

EVERYONE IS HAPPY, OUR CHILDREN HAVE GROWN UP BIG AND STRONG
IT TURNS OUT ALL OUR DREAMS CAME TOGETHER THE WAY I
WANTED ALL ALONG

CHORUS:


V3



CHORUS:

ITS NOT OVER TILL ITS OVER
ITS NOT DONE UNTIL ITS DONE
YOU'VE GOT TO BELIEVE YOU CAN
MAKE IT
EVEN WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE
YOU'RE ONLY ONE AND DONE

ITS NOT OVER TILL ITS OVER
IT AINT OVER TILL THE
FAT LADY SIGNS
DONT LET ANYBODY
TRY TO RIP APART YOUR DREAMS
