Put aside your sorrows
Well here the morning comes
Dressed in all her splendor
Gifting us the sun

Chase after shadows
That linger in your mind
Sweep out the ashes
Leave them far behind

Oh Mama
I said that's the way it goes
Sometimes
Oh sweet Mama
Come and greet the new sunrise

Come and greet the new sunrise

I can see you're hurting
Life can be so cruel
But regrets are nothing but
The errands of a fool
So put out the candles
And let the daylight in
Get out of your own way
To live is not a sin

Oh Mama
I said that's the way it goes
Sometimes
Oh sweet Mama
Come and greet the new sunrise

Oh Mama
I said that's the way it goes
Sometimes
Oh sweet Mama
Come and greet the new sunrise

Come and greet the new sunrise
