[Lyric] Twenty Years Late (David St. Romain)

Hey Mom, I know that it's late, hope I didn't wake you
Yeah everything is okay, I just needed to talk to you

Today, I had one of those days
But I didn't call to complain
Just to say everything that I didn't for all of those years

You were a taxi cab driver, a nurse and a maid
A waitress, a cook, and a shoulder to lay
My head on to cry on, when nothing was goin' my way
You knew every answer without crackin' a book
When I took for granted that I had it so good
And I'm sorry it's taken me so long to say
"Thank you, I love you" twenty years late

It's funny how time passin' by can change your perspective
A little while out on your own can sure make you think
I don't know how you did it, no I can't find one spare minute
The days run together but I don't remember you ever
Lettin' us down
You were the judge and the jury when I did wrong
Been my biggest fan from my very first song
The gas in the engine that always kept me movin' on
A seamstress, a councilor, and the one referee
That could cold stop a fight between my brothers and me
And I'm sorry it's taken me so long to say
"Thank you, I love you" twenty years late

Well, I'll let you go now, but I hope you know now, how I feel
Thank you for makin' me the man I've become
I love you and I will always be your son
Mom, that's all I called to say
Twenty years late
Hey Mom, I know that it's late, I just needed to talk to you...
