The morning light feels so different now, Without your gentle voice somehow. Your empty chair still waits for you In the kitchen where we used to talk things through. Maybe heaven needed you more, Maybe I just can’t get up off this floor Wishing for one more day, one more smile Even just to sit in silence with you for a while [Chorus:] Dear Mom, You know I love you! I always miss you! Not a day goes by I don’t think about you! The silence echoes where your laughter lived All the love you had, all the love you’d give [Verse:] I find your recipes tucked away With your handwriting that seems to say “Cook with love, that’s all you need” But nothing tastes the same without you here with me. I still see your light when the sky turns grey Your strength and warmth wrap me up every day But I’d give anything to hold your hand To hear you say, “I understand” [Chorus:] Dear Mom, You know I love you! I always miss you! Not a day goes by I don’t think about you! The silence echoes where your laughter lived All the love you had, all the love you’d give [Bridge:] I hear your wisdom in the wind Feel your hug when days grow thin Though you’re gone, you’re still right here In every memory I hold dear [Final Chorus:] Dear Mom, You know I love you! I always miss you! Not a day goes by I don’t think about you! Your love lives on in all I do Until we meet again, I’ll carry you [Outro:] Dear Mom… I love you Dear Mom… I sure miss you Dear Mom… I always think about you [whispers] Momma I miss you so much, I’ll see you soon.
