I was hoping someday that maybe we'd be friends
I kind of thought that we could work things out
I know you need your space, you put me in my place
But I can't help wondering what it'd be like...
To take a walk in the rain, strolling side by side
with you listening to what I had to say
We'd laugh to share the joy, we'd cry to share the pain
We'd get beyond this mother/daughter thing
'Cause all I ever wanted was her love
and all I ever needed was for her to show me that she cared
I know it's a lot to ask for from someone who could not give
but all I ever wanter was her love
Sometimes I have the need to feel close to you
I just want you to know how much I care
But then I get so mad when you reject what I never had
I'm trying very hard to believe
Someday we'll walk in the rain, strolling side by side
and you'll be listening to what I have to say
We'll laugh to share our joy, we'll even cry to share our pain
and we'll get beyond this mother/daughter thing
'Cause all I ever wanted was her love
and all I ever needed was for her to show me that she cared
I know it's a lot to ask for from someone who could not give
but all I ever wanter was her love
Yes, all I ever wanted was all I ever needed
All I ever wanted was her love
