Intro: I lay here pretending to sleep Someone’s always asking for something of me I try to hide but I’m stripped of my strength Bound by the truth, bored by the speed And the promise of the fortune it brings Oh mama, I just don't believe Like it happened in a Broadway scene Are we still acting, is this the real you and me The words don’t flow, but my heart it still bleeds Bound by the love, the warmth that it brings And its promise to fix everything Oh mama, I just don't believe Angel wings tied to memories They'll never fly, for you and I Angel wings tied to melodies They'll never sing, for you and me A young man whose soul was burning The hands of the people guiding him on He was moving along, mama he was cooking But the calendar won, his earnings are gone And this fortune that this young man saw Oh mama, I don’t believe in it at all Angel wings tied to memories They'll never fly, for you and I Angel wings tied to melodies They'll never sing, for you and me For you and me, They'll never sing They'll never sing, They'll never sing They'll never sing, They'll never sing Oh mama, I just don't believe Oh mama, I just don't believe
