She used to be my only enemy and never let me be free
Catching me in places that I know I shouldn't be
Every other day I crossed the line, I didn't mean to be so bad
I never thought you would, become the friend I never had
Back then I didn't know why
Why you were misunderstood (Mama)
So now I see through your eyes
All that you did was love
Mama, I love you, Mama, I care
Mama, I love you, Mama, my friend
You're my friend
I didn't want to hear it then but,
I'm not ashamed to say it now
Every little thing you said and did was right for me
I had a lot of time to think about,
about the way I used to be (Mel B & Melanie C)
Never had a sense of my responsibility
Back then I didn't know why
Why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes
All that you did was love
Mama, I love you, Mama, I care
Mama, I love you, Mama, my friend
You're my friend, you're my friend
But now I'm sure I know why
(I know why)
Why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes
All I can give you is love
(All I can give you is love)
Mama, I love you, Mama, I care
Mama, I love you, Mama, my friend
Mama, I love you, Mama, I care
Mama, I love you, Mama, my friend
You're my friend, you're my friend
