Hey I might not really be your mother
That don't mean that I don't really love ya
And even though I married your father
That's not the only reason I'm here for ya
That don't mean that I don't really love ya
And even though I married your father
That's not the only reason I'm here for ya

She's not my blood
She's not my blood
She's not my blood
She's my baby

She's not my blood
She's not my blood
She's my baby
yeah

He ain't my blood, ain't got my name
But if he did, I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for his first steps
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah, he's my son and that's my choice
He ain't my blood but he's my, he's my boy
But if he did, I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for his first steps
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah, he's my son and that's my choice
He ain't my blood but he's my, he's my boy

Aware suddenly that others were openly listening, Nuala slid her arm around Maggie's waist and announced, "This is my child! I didn't give birth to her, of course, but that's totally unimportant."
