Catherine Cares

The things I said to her are on my mind
Things I said so selfishly, didn't mean a thing to me
But now I know that she was being kind
Didn't want me to be hurt, no one there to change my shirt

Catherine cares
Now I know she does, oh yes she does, oh yeah
Catherine cares
Yeah, I know that I was wrong
Catherine cares
Yeah, the only thing she wants is to have her baby home

No matter what I got, I just complained
She'd give her last to see me smile, tried to keep me dressed in style
But I had this ambition in my brain
So I walked out and left her there without a thought, without a care

Catherine cares
Now I know she does, oh yes she does, oh yeah
Catherine cares
Yeah, I know that I was wrong
Catherine cares
Yeah, the only thing she wants is to have her baby home

Each time that I come home she says the same
"C'mon home, you're getting thin, see the state your clothes are in"
She's my mom and Catherine's her name
Gives a pound to see me straight, sits back in her chair to wait

Catherine cares
Now I know she does, oh yes she does, oh yeah
Catherine cares
Yeah, I know that I was wrong
Catherine cares
Yeah, the only thing she wants is to have her baby home

(She wants her baby home)

Catherine cares
Now I know she does, yeah I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know she does, oh yeah
Catherine cares
Catherine cares
I know that I was selfish to you, selfish to you, my mom
Catherine cares
Please forgive me...
