My mother said

For a boy (girl) who could care
I would give everything I own
just to have one who's mine alone
to always remain
for a boy (girl) who could care
There is nothing I wouldn't do
I would work all the long day through
and never complain.
I would cook for him (fight for her)
and be good for him (her)
I would do anything
that I could for him (her)
I'd make him (her) a home
and he'd (she'd) never roam
and we'd be happy there.
If I could see
in the future
that's meant for me
when my life would completely be
for a boy (girl) who could care.
