Mother

A MOTHER IS ONE WHO
UNDERSTANDS THE THINGS
YOU SAY AND DO

WHO ALWAYS OVERLOOKS
YOUR FAULTS AND SEES THE
BEST IN YOU

A MOTHER IS ONE WHOSE
SPECIAL LOVE INSPIRES YOU
DAY BY DAY.

WHO FILLS YOUR HEART WITH
GLADNESS IN HER WARM
AND THOUGHTFUL WAY.

A MOTHER IS ALL THESE THINGS
AND MORE - THE GREATEST
TREASURE KNOWN.

AND THE DEAREST MOTHER IN
ALL OF THE WORLD IS THE ONE I
CALL MY OWN.

YOU WERE MY FAIRY TALE PRINCESS,
SO MUCH LARGER THAN LIFE.
YOU WERE MY ANGEL AND MY WITNESS
THROUGH ALL MY PAIN AND STRIFE.

AT TIMES YOU MADE ME ANGRY,
GREAT WORDS I WOULD PROCLAIM
HOW SOMEDAY YOU'D BE SORRY.
YOU WERE THE ONE TO BLAME.

BUT WHEN I NEEDED COMFORTING
YOU ALWAYS FOUND THE TIME.
YOUR WORDS WERE MORE SOOTHING
THAN DAYS OF CHILDHOOD SUBLIME.

NOW THE DISTANCE HOLDS US APART,
THE BOUNDARIES HAVE NO END.
I'LL HOLD THE MEMORIES IN MY HEART.
YOU'RE MY MOTHER, MY BEST FRIEND

FOR ALL THE TIMES YOU'VE BEEN THERE
FROM THE DAY I WAS BORN
YOU'VE ALWAYS GAVE ME COURAGE
TO DO AS I PERFORM

YOU CALL TO SAY HELLO
YOU SEND ME NOTES TO SAY YOU CARE
AND WHEN WE ARE TOGETHER
A SPECIAL MOMENTIS SHARED

FORTHE MANY THINGS YOU'VE DONE
FOR ALL THE TIMES OU WERE THERE
HELPS ME TO KNOW DEEP DOWN
HOW MUCH YOU REALLY CARE

EVEN THOUGH I MIGHT NOT SAY IT,
I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL YOU DO
SO POWERFULLY BLESSED IS HOW I FEEL
FOR HAVING A MOTHER LIKE YOU.
