Mother

Lyrics by Steven R. Drennon, ©️ 1992 - 2025 Please check out my YouTube channel if you get a chance: https://www.youtube.com/@firstep3 https://youtu.be/UAX2FubeC18 You nurtured me when I was young, Taught me to read and have some fun. Then by example, taught me right from wrong. You cared for me when I was ill And never tried to bend my will. Your faith in me has helped to make me strong. Though there were times when I was rude And tried to cop an attitude, With patience you would wait ‘til I was calm. Then with a broken heart you’d say That you still loved me anyway. No one could ever touch me like that, Mom. Mother is such a lovely word, The loveliest I’ve ever heard. Especially when it’s meant for one like you. You’ve always been there by my side To wipe away the tears I’ve cried. You’re always in my heart in all I do. You told me not to raise my voice And gave to me freedom of choice To make all my decisions on my own. Although at times I’ve made mistakes, You’ve picked me up when my heart breaks. Mom, you’re the greatest woman I have known Mother is such a lovely word, The loveliest I’ve ever heard. Especially when it’s meant for one like you. You’ve always been there by my side To wipe away the tears I’ve cried. You’re always in my heart in all I do.
