Mother Lyrics - Leann Rimes

You know I want the best for you 

As you've always wanted for me 

And though our eyes may look alike but 

They don't see the same thing 

Hurt made a great divide 

I added to the pain 

My way to survive was shutting you out 

Oh I was just a child, I no longer recognize 

And now I'm seeing you 

Maybe the first time

Mother 

You did the best you could, the best you can 

I know you did the best you could, the best you can 

Do you know you did the best you could, the best you can 

Forgive me now, oh I understand 

They say we turn into our parents 

I guess we know now what they mean 

We might be made of broken pieces 

But that's not who we have to be 

Your mother's mother taught her only how to love 

From an empty fearful broken place 

Oh you were just child taught to shoulder the blame 

But you're a woman now 

You can lift your face

'Cause mother 

You did the best you could, the best you can 

I know you did the best you could, the best you can 

Do you know you did the best you could, the best you can 

Forgive me now, oh I understand
