Tender Kisses - revised

[inngr8]

First revision - hope it might be the last. Went with "was" rather than "been" in v1 and v2 line one - didn't want anyone thinking the "me" in the song had "been" a mama or a lady and "was" is more in line with the reference to losing them both later in the song.Tender KissesV1Never was a Mama like mineShe was always there time after timeWhen life knocked me lowMama was there to help me shineWhen some girl broke my heartMama helped me find my princessThat girl completed my worldAll curves and tender kissesChorus x2Tender kisses like medicineThey pick me up when I can’t go onAnd I remember the best of themThey seem to linger after their goneV2Never was a lady like mineShe was always there , right by my sideThrough all the valleys and peaksHer tender kisses made me weakAnd when our baby girl cameSeemed all we did was fuss and fightBut night after nightHer tender kisses made us alrightChorus x2Tender kisses like medicineThey pick me up when I can’t go onAnd I remember the best of themThey seem to linger after their goneV3My daughter keeps me youngShe stole my heart that first dayLife hasn’t been easy and we’veHit some bumps along the wayI lost my mama, then my wifeI felt my world was endingBut with the baby in my lifeI find myself rememberingChorusTender kisses like medicineThey pick me up when I can’t go onAnd I remember the best of themThey seem to linger after their goneAll those tender kissesMake me high when I think about…All those tender kissesMake my cry when I think about…P.
