Mars

[Verse 1]
Well, there's a hole wearing through this couch of mine
And all the cushions are falling out, one little piece at a time
You might see yourself in me, but I don't see nobody I know
This isn't the way I figured it would be when I figured it a long time ago
A long time ago

[Verse 2]
Well, there's a rule me and my little boy have
You've got to say "I love you" before you close your eyes
And he can dream himself to sleep and I can pray or cry
One thing I have taught him well is to never wonder why
Why wonder why?

[Chorus]
And I see Mars, reflecting in my little boy's brown eyes
And he says "Mama, I'm gonna get there someday
Mama, I'm gonna get there someday"
And I say "Fly"

[Verse 3]
Well, you can hold the whole entire world in your hands
Or you can borrow all of your lessons from me
Well, life is not a question, son, I tell him life is just a dream
And it's not as bad as it looks right now, because nothing's as bad as it seems
Not as it seems

[Chorus]
And I see Mars reflecting in my little boy's brown eyes
And he says "Mama, I'm gonna get there someday
Mama, I'm gonna to get there someday"
I see Mars reflecting in my little boy's brown eyes
And he says "Mama, I'm gonna get there someday
Mama, I'm gonna to get there someday"
And I say, "Fly"

[Bridge]
Well, there's a hole wearing through this heart of mine
And all of the filling is falling out, one little piece at a time

[Outro]
But I see Mars (I see Mars)
Reflecting in my little boy's brown eyes (Boy's brown eyes)
And he says "Mama, I'm gonna get there someday
Mama I'm gonna get there someday"
And I say, "Fly
I know you can fly"
