How It Was

VERSE 1
Don’t know where to start
‘Cause it was all so sudden
God, it feels so hard
Watching mama strugglin’
She can barely walk
And she can hardly talk
Fightin’ through the day
I wanna trust Your heart
But this doesn’t feel ok

PRE CHORUS
I know You hold the world
In the palm of Your hand
But I don’t understand
Are You listenin’ to me?

CHORUS
I wanna believe we’ll go back to being us
And someday it will be like how it was
Oh how it was
And I wanna believe that You’re up there smilin’ down
God, if You’re good please heal her now
And I’m singing You this song
‘Cause I need my mom

VERSE 2
God, this breaks my heart
Her in this condition
I loved when she did cart…
…wheels in the kitchen
Now she can barely walk
And she can hardly talk
Fightin’ through the day
I’m begging you to fix this
It doesn’t feel ok

PRE CHORUS
I know You hold the world
In the palm of Your hand
But I don’t understand
Are You listenin’ to me?

CHORUS
And I wanna believe we’ll go back to being us
And someday it will be like how it was
Oh how it was
And I wanna believe that You’re up there smilin’ down
God, if You’re good please heal her now
And I’m singing You this song
‘Cause I need my mom
I need my mom

BRIDGE
I need my best friend
My biggest fan
My cheerleader
My steady hand
You can do anything
So God bring her back
The old her back

CHORUS
I wanna believe we’ll go back to being us
And someday it will be like how it was
Oh how it was
And I wanna believe that You’re up there smilin’ down
God, if You’re good please heal her now
And I’m singing You this song
‘Cause I need my mom
I need my mom
I need my mom
