[Verse 1]
Oh, they will never get to me
You taught me to be free
You raised me like a queen
Oh, you shared the world with me
The truth was mine to see
Your stories let me be
The ocean and the trees
Mama, you raised me like a queen
Oh, the things you make me see
We struggled you and me
We're swimming through the breeze
Oh, but you never let me down
And all the shells I found
You pick up from the ground
Now I turn them into sound, mom
[Chorus]
Sundays, watch the rain
You gave me towels in the bay
Maybe someday, it's my turn
I'll teach the freedom that I learned
[Verse 2]
Oh, I was feeling six feet tall
Screaming from the shore
To beat the ocean roar
Oh, cause you made me feel secure
And the storms we're drawing near
We faced our darkest fears
And you made them disappear
Mom, mom, mom
[Chorus]
Sundays, watch the rain
You gave me towels in the bay
Maybe someday, it's my turn
I'll teach the freedom that I learned
