[00:00.00]Mockingbird+Better in Time+Dear Mama - Leona Lewis
[00:01.86]Yeah I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
[00:09.25]But hey what'd daddy always tell you
[00:13.24]Straighten up little soldier stiffen up that upper lip
[00:18.27]What you cryin' about
[00:20.03]You got me
[00:23.08]Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
[00:26.03]When I'm gone but I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had
[00:29.08]I can see you're sad even when you smile even when you laugh
[00:32.27]I can see it in your eyes deep inside you wanna cry
[00:35.25]'Cause you're scared I ain't there
[00:36.72]Daddy's with you in your prayers
[00:38.20]No more cryin' wipe them tears
[00:39.61]Daddy's here no more nightmares
[00:41.10]We gon' pull together through it
[00:42.58]We gon' do it Lainie Uncle's crazy ain't he
[00:44.82]Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
[00:47.02]We're all we got in this world when it spins when it swirls
[00:49.92]When it whirls when it twirls two little beautiful girls
[00:52.75]Lookin' puzzled in a daze I know it's confusin' you
[00:55.71]Daddy's always on the move
[00:57.17]Momma's always on the news
[00:58.44]I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
[01:01.06]The harder that I try to do that the more it backfires on me
[01:04.19]All the things growin' up as daddy that he had to see
[01:06.96]Daddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he did
[01:10.11]We did not plan it to be this way your mother and me
[01:12.69]But things have got so bad between us I don't see us ever bein'
[01:15.84]Together ever again like we used to be when we was teenagers
[01:19.27]But then of course everything always happens for a reason
[01:22.48]I guess it was never meant to be but it's just something
[01:24.96]We have no control over and that's what destiny is
[01:28.03]But no more worries rest your head and go to sleep
[01:30.48]Maybe one day we'll wake up and this'll all just be a dream
[01:35.19]I couldn't turn on the TV
[01:40.66]Without something there to remind me
[01:46.91]Was it all that easy
[01:52.37]To just put aside your feelings
[01:57.41]If I'm dreaming don't wanna laugh
[02:00.18]Hurt my feelings but that's the path
[02:03.14]I believe in and I know that time will heal it
[02:08.75]If you didn't notice boy you meant everything
[02:11.90]Quickly I'm learning to love again
[02:15.01]All I know is I'mma be okay
[02:21.71]Thought I couldn't live without you
[02:24.49]It's gonna hurt when it heals too
[02:27.50]Oh yeah
[02:29.02]It'll all get better in time
[02:33.27]And even though I really love you
[02:36.20]I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
[02:40.76]It'll all get better in time
[02:43.64]Pour out some liquor and I reminisce
[02:45.82]'Cause through the drama I can always depend on my mama
[02:49.39]And when it seems that I'm hopeless
[02:51.66]You say the words that can get me back in focus
[02:55.41]When I was sick as a little kid
[02:57.48]To keep me happy there's no limit to the things you did
[03:01.07]And all my childhood memories
[03:03.72]Are full of all the sweet things you did for me
[03:06.92]And even though I act crazy
[03:09.55]I gotta thank the Lord that you made me
[03:12.54]There are no words that can express how I feel
[03:15.32]You never kept a secret always stayed real
[03:18.45]And I appreciate how you raised me
[03:21.39]And all the extra love that you gave me
[03:24.55]I wish I could take the pain away
[03:26.69]If you can make it through the night there's a brighter day
[03:29.76]Everything will be alright if you hold on
[03:32.74]It's a struggle every day gotta roll on
[03:35.79]And there's no way I can pay you back but my plan
[03:39.11]Is to show you that I understand
[03:41.76]You are appreciated
[03:48.09]Dear mama
[03:51.03]It'll all get better in time
[03:53.94]You are appreciated
