Verse1:		Mama, she has taught me well,
		Told me, when I was young,
		"Son, your life? s an open book,
		Don? t close it? fore it? s done
		The brighest flame goes quickest,"
		That? s what I heard her say.
		The son? s heart owned to mother
		But I must find my way...

Chorus:		Let my heart go,
		Let your son grow,
		Mama, let my heart go
		Or let this heart be still.

!		Intro.

Verse2:		Rebel, my new last name,
		Wild blood in my veins
		Draping the strings aroound my neck,
		The mark that still remains
		I left home at an early age,
		Of what I heard was wrong,
		I never asked forgiveness
		For what was sad and done...

!		Chorus.

Bridge:		Never Iasked of you,
		But never I gave,
		But you gave me your emtyness
		That I? ll take to my grave, (these 4 lines repeat 2 times)
		So let this heart be still.

Verse3:		Mama, now I? m coming home,
		I? m not all you wished to me,
		But mother? s love for her son
		Was spoken, help me be
		And I took your love for granted
		And all the things you said to me,
		I need your armes to welkome me,
		But cold stone? s all I see...

!		Chorus.

Bridge2:	Let my heart go,
		Mama, let my heart go
		You never let my heart go,
		Or let this heart be still.
