Mom you make my days much brighter
Mom you make my heart much lighter
Mom without you I would not be
The person that today you see
Mom you've taught me to be strong
And how to stay away from the wrong
And even on the days of sadness
You've brought back to my face the gladness
Mom you've made my days more colorful
And took away the bad and awful
Mom I can never be more grateful
For how much for me you have been able
Mom you are the missing piece
That my heart is in decrease
You are always there for me to find
Me and you are just entwined
Mom I have more words to give
Just no space for it all to fit
But what I can tell you just from above
Is that you are the one I love
