Kadison, Joshua - Mama's Arms Lyrics
Going back to a tender age,
so full of confusion and rage,
Daddy says, "Boys, your Mama's gone."
There's a hand on your shoulder as you're throwing dirt,
someone says, "Time heals the hurt.
but all you want is Mama's arms.
You ride back home in a limousine,
the saddest car that you've ever seen,
your brother can not look you in the eye.
Lightning strikes, thunder roars,
an early winter in that heart of yours,
but you swear you won't let them see you cry
'cause all you want is Mama's arms.
endless words and futile sighs,
and you run up to your room and lock the door.
And there you are in your Sunday best,
the way your Mama would have had you dressed
and you realize it doesn't matter anymore
'cause all you want is Mama's arms.
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes.
The seasons change the young boy grows
to understand it's all part of some plan.
You used to wonder what it's all about.
Now those are questions you can do without.
You laugh them off and do the best you can
but all you want is Mama's arms.
All you want is Mama's arms.

Woke up this morning at 5:30 and the first thing that came to mind was this song...watched this video and i simply couldn't hold back the tears...i lost my mother to cancer 20 years ago, i was 22 then...now i have three sons and i know she would have doted on them like crazy had she lived to see them...still have moments when the pain is as raw as it was 20 years back

It’s a blessing you had her as long as you did. I feel for the people who never met her. Thank you for sharing her memory.
Whatever happened to Joshua? I'm obsessed with knowing what he's doing now!
As of 5-4-2018 I am one of those people who wants mama's arms but will never get to be hugged by them again😭
me, as of Nov. 20, 2018. so sad
So sorry 😢
25 years later, now only realising the significance of this song
Found this song recently and i can't stop crying each time i hear this song...
My mom passed away in 2008 . Last month i found a CD to this album and found this song . i relate to it so much , and i have no clue who put it in my room . but i cry every time i hear it.
I recently met a young man, 14, who lost his mom 2 years ago. He rides his bike past my house at 7:00 just to see if I am out watering my flowers. Then we sit in the middle of the street by his bike and talk about how much his life has changed from a 100 acre farm to a subdivision...
Miss my mom every day. It doesn't matter how old I am I will miss her so. 4-7-35 to Nov of 2013
I lost my mom 41 years ago and this song brings back every memory as though it were yesterday. You're never too old to miss mama's arms.
I first heard this song years ago, while my mom was still with us. I was 29 when she died. It's been almost 12 years and my heart still aches for her.
Beautiful song. Wish I could tell my mum I love her one more time.
I lost my mum last year she was 90 I am 57 and still miss mothers arms,this is a beautiful song still cry when I listen to it.
Just Beautiful
37 years ago today, my mama died of breast cancer at the age of 50, I was 17. I miss her every minute of every day!
My mother past away when I was 14. I never knew her.
Love that song
R.I.P. Gloria Castillo.
Beautiful song always brings a lump to the throat.and my old mums still with me.
miss you mom, jan 19-1931-april 14,1994 taken far too soon from leukemia, always loved, sorely missed<3
Miss you mum, 18 years today that you have been gone xxx
I went to the States in 2003 and brought it back for my wife.I never thought it would be so popular with her and me. Painted desert is a masterpiece.
LOVE this song!
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. My mum died suddenly a year ago and this song reflects a lot of what we went through, and continue to go through. People die, love never does.
I miss my Nan..
