I wish I could shoot the shit with my grandmother Tell her about the details of my day She'd get a taste of my dark sense of humor But the language she knows is from far far away I try to express what I feel but I get nervous My clumsy vocabulary never quite lands The little I know only scratches the surface Eventually we chuckle to signal the things that we can't Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha haaah I guess you could say it's an unrequited love Born in the USA, born to chase my mother tongue If I could reply to her heart wrenching question Why I'm not with that guy she so adores I'd say I could feel my heart wasn't invested We gave it our best yet we each needed more But alas I cannot so I shrug and I hug her Hoping my touch will show that I'm okay Our sighs fill the air as the quietness hovers We laugh loud to signal the things that we can't relay Letras de canciones Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha haaah I guess you could say it's an unrequited love Born in the USA, don't have much more I can say Other than Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha haaah I think of the details I long to uncover Like what makes her tick and what gives her release? And what were some memories of raising my mother? When mom was a child did she fight back like me? Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha What an unrequited love Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Born to chase my mother tongue From Letras Mania
