Mmm, yeah...
Listen to me, Momma.
The rain is tapping on the window pane
A midnight melody of quiet regret and pain
I spoke too fast, the shadows grew so long
Now I'm sitting here, writing you this song
To mend the delicate thread we spun.
Oh, Momma, let the music clear the air
With every note, I want to show I care
Sophisticated grace, the way you move
Let's find our way back to the groove
Forgive the foolish words I said tonight.
You carry wisdom like a golden light
A vintage wine that warms the coldest night
I lost my step, I tripped upon my pride
But I still want to walk right by your side
Underneath the dim and smoky glow.
Oh, Momma, let the music clear the air
With every note, I want to show I care
Sophisticated grace, the way you move
Let's find our way back to the groove
Forgive the foolish words I said tonight.
Mmm, swing it soft...
Forgive me, Momma, yeah...
Just one more dance tonight.
