G.o.o.d. - To Mother Lyrics

Mother I miss you.

From the time I was young, we were poor.
Unlike other people we didn't eat out much.
If my Mom wasn't at home I would eat instant noodles alone.
But I got really tired of instant noodles.
So I yelled at Mom for better food.
And forced her to take out the emergency money
That had been hidden.
To order chinese noodles for us. I was really happy.
But Mother didn't eat for some reason.
Mother said she didn't like chinese noodles.
Mother said she didn't like chinese noodles.

Yah-ee yah-ee yah-a-a
That's how we live. We regret and tears fall.
Yah-ee yah-ee yah-a-a
That's how we live. It really hurts but we smile again.

When I was in the first year of middle school,
It was time to open our lunch boxes and eat.
We all opened our lunch boxes together to share.
Some rich kid yelled at me
because I had lousy side dishes.
I was ashamed and started to cry.
Then that jerk started teasing me.
I couldn't take it, so I punched him in the face.
Mother came to school from work.
She was called for. No, she was dragged in.
This will never happen again she begged.
With her head down to that jerk's Mom my mother begged.
My mother begged.

Yah-ee yah-ee yah-a-a
That's how we live. We regret and tears fall.
Yah-ee yah-ee yah-a-a
That's how we live. It really hurts but we smile again.

Even without Father we finally made it.
We finally opened a small restaurant.
It wasn't big, but we were happy.
Tears came from Mom's wrinkled eyes.
We used Mom's and my first name to name the restaurant.
We named the restaurant and offered our prayers.
It was late at night, but nobody left.
People kept on congratulating us.
It was midnight when everyone left.
Mother was very tired, she quickly fell into a deep sleep.
And she never woke up again.

I loved you
even though I never once told you.
I love you. Rest now
forever in the world without me.

Yah-ee yah-ee yah-a-a
That's how we live. We regret and tears fall.
Yah-ee yah-ee yah-a-a
That's how we live. It really hurts but we smile again.

Yah-ee yah-ee yah-a-a
That's how we live. We regret and tears fall.
Yah-ee yah-ee yah-a-a
That's how we live. It really hurts but we smile again.
