My Mother Looked Like Marilyn Monroe

So far from the ordinary things I once knew

Well, I wait for the chance to tell you what is true

I've stood here a long time

Everything is clear

There's no one around but you're always near

You know what to do

Well sometimes I feel like letting go

And I swear that it's true

Yeah, my mother looked like Marilyn Monroe

Forgetting the past I feel so inclined

To talk about the last thing that's on my mind

And one of the saddest Saturdays gone by

I faced the situation

Where everybody cried

You know what to do

But sometimes I feel like letting go

And I swear that it's true

Yeah, my mother looked like Marilyn Monroe

You wanna feel so bad

You think I don't care

When I'm really wanted now

Out there in the air

This side of love

We sat in a bar that's only painted green

She lies in a valley, not on the screen

What's all the commotion

Going on outside

Will I find my emotion welling up inside

Well, you know what to do

But sometimes I feel like letting go

And I swear that it's true

My mother looked like Marilyn Monroe

Well, you know what to do

But sometimes I feel like letting go

And I swear that it's true

My mother looked like Marilyn Monroe
