[Verse]
Didn't I lace her shoes
Just the same as you?
And ain't that my blood in her veins?
Didn't I love her?
Didn't I hold her?
Ain't that my blue in her eyes?

[Pre-Chorus]
She don't need another heartbreak
Don't make it 'bout me
No mother should ever let her child
Bear the hate that she feels

[Chorus]
Please (please)
Please (please)
Please, don't take her from me

[Verse]
I don't wanna see her grow
Just to be like you
I can't stand your smile on her face
I didn't ask for nothing
I never wanted war
You still have a gun to my head

[Pre-Chorus]
She don't need another heartbreak
Don't make it 'bout me
No mother should ever let her child
Bear the hate that she feels

[Chorus]
Please (please)
Please (please)
Please, don't take her from me

[Chorus]
Please (please)
Please (please)
Please, don't take her from me

[Verse]
Didn't I lace her shoes
Just the same as you?
And ain't that my blood in her veins?
Didn't I love her?
Didn't I hold her?
Ain't that my blue in her eyes?

[Pre-Chorus]
She don't need another heartbreak
Don't make it 'bout me
No mother should ever let her child
Bear the hate that she feels

[Pre-Chorus]
She don't need another heartbreak
Don't make it 'bout me
No mother should ever let her child
Bear the hate that she feels

[Outro]
No mother should
No mother should
Don't take her from me
