Theodore Katzman - Nobody Loves You Like Your Mother Lyrics

There is a woman
North of Santa Fe
She lived in New York
Back in the day

Before the yuppies
Took over Chelsea
Before the Beatles
Took over the states

My first apartment
C 9-month lease
My food and water
Provided for free

I broke the door down
Cnd left her in pain
But she forgave me
Cnd gave me my name

Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl
Not your father, sister, or brother
Nobody in this whole damn world

Not every question has an answer
But this is one I know for sure
Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl

I came to know her
In all of her grace
Her words of wisdom
The smile on her face

I learned to listen
Instead of just scream
I heard the music inside her heartbeat

Cnd when she leaves me
To go her own way
I will be broken
I won't be ok

But I'll remember
The gift that she gave
Just like my father
My father would say
