Contradiction Lyrics

Joel was her only son, trouble was his way of having fun
With the wrong crowd, he was heading for kingdom come
What should a mother do, she'll have to let go to get through
If she could she'd send him away for his own good

It's such a contradiction to love someone enough to walk away
The curse of benediction is the pain that just won't go away
La la la la, it's such a contradiction

Penny was just sixteen, answering someone else's dream
With her child 'cause they had what she couldn't provide
What should a mother do, she had to let go to get through
If she could she wouldn't do what's for his own good

It's such a contradiction to love someone enough to walk away
The curse of benediction is the pain that just won't go away
La la la la, it's such a contradiction

Joel was her only son, trouble was his way of having fun
With the wrong crowd, he was heading for kingdom come
What should a mother do, she'll have to let go to get through
