Paroles de It's Not Easy

I remember the day I called mama on the telephone
I told her mama I'm getting married
I could hear her voice on the other side of the telephone she was smiling
And she asked me a question that I proudly answered
She said son did you take time to know her
I said mama she's the best
But today it hurts me so
To go back to mama and say mama I
'm getting divorced
Oh I'm getting divorced

This choice I made didn't work out the way I thought it would (x2) it hurts me so mama

mama said to me

Chorus:
It's not easy to understand it son
But I hope you'll make it (x3)
You'll be happy again

I remember in church
When the preacher read the scriptures
You looked so beautiful and innocent
I did not know that behind that beauty
Lies the true colors that will destroy me in the near future
By the hand preacherman read the scriptures
Putting words in you mouth

Maybe what the preacherman said was not something that was with you
Now I know what they mean when they say

Beautiful woman is another man's plaything
Oh Lord I'm hurting now

this choice I made didn't work out the way I thought it would
Mama said to me

Chorus (till fade) It's not easy...
