歌词
You could've been bitter, you could've hated him
你本可愤愤不平,你本可恨他
You could've talked about the whiskey and the women
你本可谈论威士忌和那个小三
他本可做得更好,但你还是一如既往地爱他
He couldn've done better, but you loved him anyhow
你也教会了我们宽容的力量
妈妈,你本可整夜痛哭,却一直保持微笑
Then you taught us all the power of forgiveness
妈妈,你让我相信一切都会很好
妈妈,你从不觉得自己有多大委屈
Mama, you were smiling when you could've been crying all night
我因此对你心存感激
Mama, you made me believe everything was alright
你本可争吵,让他羞愧而死
Mama, you never wore your pain too thick
你本可告诉我们爸爸并不想要我们
I'd like to thank you for this
但你始终知道,那么做不对
你在在生计和爱之间挣扎
You could've fought, you could've cut him down to shame
妈妈,你本可整夜痛哭,却一直保持微笑
You could've told us that our daddy didn't want us
妈妈,你让我相信一切都会很好
妈妈,你从不觉得自己有多大委屈
But that wasn't true, and you knew it all along
我因此对你心存感激
It was a struggle between the road and loving you
你对我的积极影响大到你自己都不知道
我见过其他让孩子心中充满仇恨的妈妈们
Mama, you were smiling when you could've been crying all night
但你知道你不该托我下水
你让我同样地爱爸爸
Mama, you made me believe everything was alright
妈妈,你本可整夜痛哭,却一直保持微笑
Mama, you never wore your pain too thick
妈妈,你让我相信一切都会很好
I'd like to thank you for this
妈妈,你从不觉得自己有多大委屈
我因此对你心存感激
You did more good for me than you will ever know
我因此对你心存感激
I've seen mothers fill their childrens hearts with hate
But you knew better than to drag me down with you
You let me love my daddy just the same
Mama, you were smiling when you could've been crying all night
Mama, you made me believe everything was alright
Mama, you never wore your pain too thick
I'd like to thank you for this
Oh I'd like to thank you for this
