Gone but not forgotten ( Mama)

Verse 1 Colors aren’t as bright now, Rain falls more often than not. Sleepless nights have been my norm Since you went away, Mama. You were my anchor in the storm, Tried to guide me through raging seas. Your love is missed in quiet ways That never really leave. Pre-Chorus You made my world make sense somehow, Even when I didn’t know my way. Now I reach for you out of habit, And the silence answers back. Chorus (Hook) I keep picking up the phone to call you, Then I remember—you’re gone. So many things I want to tell you, But I’m standing here alone. I miss your laugh, your voice, your fussing, That look that said you knew. Mama, I keep reaching for you In everything I do. Verse 2 Our minds have gone half crazy, Trying to live without your voice. No more asking for your wisdom, No more hearing your advice. We had our love for good books, Shared stories, shared time. Now I’m on the outside looking in, Fading into days that don’t feel like mine. Pre-Chorus 2 There’s a hole where you used to be, A space no one can fill. Every small accomplishment Makes me miss you still. Chorus (Repeat) I keep picking up the phone to call you, Then I remember—you’re gone. So many things I want to tell you, But I’m standing here alone. I miss your laugh, your voice, your fussing, That look that said you knew. Mama, I keep reaching for you In everything I do. Bridge I’ll try to tell a story, But the words don’t come out right. So I’ll tell it with a melody On these long, sleepless nights. If I sing your name softly, Maybe you’ll hear me somehow. This song is how I hold you Now. Final Chorus (Softer, then build) I keep picking up the phone to call you, Knowing you won’t answer me. But loving you didn’t stop with goodbye, It just learned a different way to be. Mama, my heart still knows you, Even though you’re gone from view. I keep reaching for you, Mama— And I always will. Outro So I’ll tell your story with a song
