Oh Mama
Rolling Thunder of Love: A Journey Through Heartache
Lyrics
I don't think I know what's going on in your head tonight
I am unsure about your thoughts tonight.
I know you think of me but maybe not how I think of you
You think of me, but our perspectives may differ.
I know there's a life for us and I think you want it
I believe there's a potential life for us, and you may desire it.
But I don't think you're ready for me, just being honest
You may not be prepared for a relationship with me, honestly.
Oh Mama my heart is heavy, love is so filled with pain
Expressing emotional heaviness, love is often painful.
Can you keep a secret I don't wanna give it all away
Request for confidentiality; hesitancy to reveal everything.
Oh Mama this life has hurt you and I wanna make it right
Acknowledging life's hardships and a desire to make things right.
But look out Mama the rolling thunder love is no easy answer
Cautioning about the challenges of love, using "rolling thunder."
Don't tell me like tomorrow's never gonna beat today
Discouraging optimism about the future, emphasizing the present.
If we're not gonna last forever will we just fade away
Pondering whether the relationship will endure or fade away.
And here's to the lonesome lovers hungry for affection
To those feeling lonely, craving affection and understanding.
We all know what it's like to be singing the blues
Acknowledging the universality of experiencing sadness.
Oh Mama my heart is heavy, love is so filled with pain
Reiteration of the emotional weight of love.
Can you keep a secret I don't wanna give it all away
Repetition of the desire to keep certain feelings undisclosed.
Oh Mama I know this life has knocked you black and blue
Acknowledging the impact of life's challenges on the person.
Look out Mama the rolling thunder love is the great survivor
Emphasizing the enduring nature of powerful love.
I'll surrender to my home
Expressing a willingness to surrender to the concept of home.
It is the rocky road
Describing home as a challenging or uncertain path.
Home is it love or glory
Pondering if home is about love or achieving glory.
Here we go
