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
