Dear Abby

What am I supposed to do?
Each day brings a new kind of blue
With nothin' to gain and even less to lose
Tryin' to shake this longing for you

Each mornin the thought creeps in
Wonder what she's doin' and where she's been
Will this lost boy ever find his mama again?
Or is she too far gone within?

I just wanted you to say
That you think of me too each and every day
What keeps us apart we can't really say
But I wish you well, I hope and pray

You'll never know what the hurt can do
I'll never know the pain you have endured
I wonder what it'd be like if we found a cure
To the fear and the hate and the anger too
They say all that's inherited passed to me from you
Goes back farther than any blame we can prove
Only thing I can think of left for us to do
We could end it all with just an "I love you"

Can we start again?
Can I make you see?
That I love you and you still love me
It may be as simple as biology
But Abby I miss you, I wish you well, and the bullshit ends with me

I just wanted you to say
That you think of me too each and every day
What keeps us apart we can't really say
But I wish you well, I hope and pray
Now you know what the hurt can do
Now I've felt the pain that you endured
I stopped my wonderin' about a cure
To the fear and the hate and the anger too
We know it was all inherited passed from them to you
And on down to your first born son
Who's singing this to you
All that's left to say is mama, I love you
