Send My Love To John

歌詞

Cross the border in the summer of '73 Left my mother to go after the American Dream Ooh, threw away my name Ooh, it's easier when it sounds the same All I ever wanted was for you to have a better chance Go to college, find a good girl that you take to a dance Ooh, pictured you with her Ooh, but that was never who you were And I'm sorry for the things I've done A misguided love to my only son Trying to protect you but I guess I was wrong So send my love, send my love to John Saw the way the kids treated you everyday at school I should've blamed them but instead I hid behind the Bible's rules Ooh, prayed to God above Ooh, but all you needed was my love And I'm sorry for the things I've done A misguided love to my only son We had both had to leave our mothers to get the things we want So send my love, send my love to John (Ooh) Ooh, John And I see that he takes care of you From the food he makes, he's there for you In all the ways I never was, ooh And I'm sorry for the things I've done A misguided love to my only son But I love to see you happy And right where you belong So send my love Oh, send my love Send my love to John
