Simply Love

Early one moment, you'll wake up and find
A note's been slipped beneath your door
It says the same thing that I said in mine
Mom, I love you, but I can't lie anymore

And in that moment you'll forget to breathe
Your future has no guarantee
Will you disown the girl you love
Like my mother did because she couldn't see

That love is simply love
There's no judgment and no shame
The only thing to understand
Is that all our hearts beat the same

Love is simply love
So what are you frightened of?
Your daughter loves you and she's begging you to
Just realize that love is simply love

I've seen this story far too many times
The broken lives, the wasted years
You're still her mother and she's still your child
So don't let this end in tears

'Cause love is simply love
There's no judgment and no shame
The only thing to understand
Is that all of our hearts beat the same

Oh, love is simply love
So what are you frightened of?
Your daughter needs you and she's begging you to
Just realize that love is simply love
