[Verse 1]
It was Mother s Day
When you came clean
We let the car run under the overpass like when we were teens
[Verse 2]
You said it ground you down
You said you made a mess
You said your world was grey and the kids were the only colour that was left
[Verse 3]
I think I spoke too soon
I always hate it when you cry
I should have told you then what I m writing now, it kept me up all night
[Chorus]
You re gonna be fine
Mother s Day comes and goes
Summer will be here soon to chase the chill away
We ll chase regret out with the ghosts
You re gonna be fine
Give it some time and you ll see
You ll have these East Coast springs
Three headstrong kids
You ll have Jesus and you ll have me
You re gonna be fine
[Verse 4]
It was a parking lot
Near that South Carolina dive
I came unglued, I freaked you out, let the bees out of the hive
[Verse 5]
I let it go too long
Long past the point of fun
I hadn t gotten it all out of my system yet
I said I d move on, I was done
[Verse 6]
I think I spoke too soon
I always hate to make you cry
Like on Mother s Day when you told me again
Folks like us are never satisfied
[Chorus]
But we re gonna be fine
Just like you told me before
Oh I can pick back up and get to work
Or I can walk right out the door
But I m gonna be fine
To Carolina to sea
We ll have heads like hives on Mother s Day
So thank you Jesus for the bees
We re gonna be fine
On Mother s day
Gonna be fine
On Mother s Day
I m gonna be fine
