Lyrics

FROM THE HEART

You might think that I was mean to you, for the things I wouldn't let you do
You never liked it when I told you no, you hated me when you couldn't go
It wasn't easy when I saw you sad, it always hurt me when you got mad
I hope you know, it was straight from the heart

Eventually you became my teens, you still thought that I was being mean
Said I chased all your boyfriends away, told me I was always in your way
I'd watch the clock when you were out at night, when you were late we would have a fight
I hope you know, it was straight from the heart

CHORUS
From the heart, there's nothing I wouldn't do
See you grow up I'll watch over you
You'll always be those little girls to me, hope you know, it was straight from the heart

There's still things I wouldn't let you do, you think I'm still being mean to you
Still don't like it if I tell you no, I can't stop you if you want to go
Well I'm so proud when I look at you, I'll always be there when you need me to
Hope you know, it was straight from the heart

CHORUS






My only wish is that I live to see, both of you married happy as me
Now you've grown up and I know you see, the things I did were for you not me
And now it's time that you share my fears, you'll tell them no, then you'll shed some tears
Then you'll know, it was straight from your heart

2nd CHORUS

From the heart, I got my wishes too
You've both grown up and I'm still looking at you
You'll always be those little girls to me, hope you know
It was straight from the heart

1st CHORUS
