Song Lyrics

She used to say you'd come along
And everything would change
The minute you walked into my life
I’d never been the same

No more running ‘round town,
No more staying out all night
Girl, I finally found that feeling,
I guess Mama was right

Such a sweet emotion, you pour it all over me
Girl, it’s mind blowing, baby I can barely breathe
The only one I ever wanna love, the only way I ever wanna leave
One look, one touch, one kiss and that was it
Now I know what mama meant

She used to tell me how it'd feel when the feeling’s right, oh Lord
But mama never told me when I felt you girl, I'd wanna feel you all night
Now I’m under your spell, I surrender my soul
And if I ever have to leave, you’re the only place I'd wanna go

Sweet emotion, you pour it all over me
Girl, it’s mind blowing and baby I can barely breathe
The only one I ever wanna love, the only way I ever wanna leave
One look, one touch, one kiss and that was it
Now I know what mama meant

Sweet emotion, you pour it all over me
Girl, it’s mind blowing and baby I can barely breathe
The only one I ever wanna love, the only way I ever wanna leave
One look, one touch, one kiss and that was it
You’re the only thing, girl I don’t wanna quit
Now I know what mama meant

Mama told me
She used to say you'd come along
And everything will change, and it did girl
She used to tell me the way it'd feel oh, and it felt good
Like she said it would
