Hey Mama

Hey mama, we made it pretty far
They didn't give us half a chance, but darlin' here we are
We kept it all together. That's saying alot
So what do you say, we try to make it all the way, mama?

Last night you walked in late and the world was new
You filled the space with golden light and sweet perfume
A woman leaned and whispered in her husband's ear
As if the Queen of Sheba had just made it here
Our friends all came to greet you
You turned your eyes across the room to me
And I felt so good inside to know
As if I we had never known before

Hey mama, we made it pretty far

But it isn't always pretty is it? If it is, it seems that way
Sometimes we just don't understand. If we do, we just don't say
Still, you find a way to let me find my own way
Let's drive away together before they even know
We'll both look out the window and hold each other close
We'll think of all we've been through
And those we love the most
And we'll feel so good inside to know
As if we had never known before

We made it pretty far....hey mama
