There was a time I was happy in my life There was a time I believed I'd live
forever There was a time I prayed to Jesus Christ There was a time I had a
mother It was nice
Nobody else would ever take the place of
you Nobody else could do the things that you could do No one else I guess
could hurt me like you did I didn't understand, I was just a
kid
[Bridge:]
Oh mother, why aren't you here with me No
one else saw the things that you could see I'm trying hard to dry my
tears Yes father, you know I'm not so
free
[Chorus:]
I've got to give it up Find someone to
love me I've got to let it go Find someone that I can care for I've got
to give it up Find someone to love me I've got to let it go Find
someone that I can care for
There was a time I was happy in my
life There was a time I believed I'd live forever There was a time I
prayed to Jesus Christ There was a time I had a mother It was
nice
[bridge] [chorus]
My mother died when I was
five And all I did was sit and cry I cried and cried and cried all
day Until the neighbors went away
They couldn't take my
loneliness I couldn't take their phoniness My father had to go to
work I used to think he was a jerk
I didn't know his heart was
broken And not another word was spoken He became a shadow of The father
I was dreaming of
I made a vow that I would never need Another person
ever Turned my heart into a cage A victim of a kind of rage
I gotta
give it up [repeat twice]
[chorus]
Find someone
that I can care for Find someone that I can care for
I've got to give
it up [repeat five times]
I've got to let it go I've got to
give it up Oh mother, oh father I've got to give it up
I gotta give
it up [repeat six times]
