Mother

I would never let a tear fall from your eyes

No, no, no, no

'Cause everything you are to me

Oh, I could never let you hurt inside

You mean so much and I'm so thankful that you're in my life

And I appreciate your love all your sacrifice

Without you by my side I never could survive

I wouldn't be the woman standin' here before your eyes

You taught me strength and you gave me guidance

Whenever faith was lost, you were there to find it

And all because a mother's love is unconditional

With all my heart and all my soul I wanna let you know

That I thank you (I thank you) And I love you (I love you)

And I will never place anyone above you

Said I thank you (I thank you) And I love you (Love you, oh)

And I will never, ever place no one above you

You have given me life, and I just want you to know

That you're the reason I'm here today, I will never let go

To everything that we share and nothing can compare

I thank you, I thank you, I thank you, is what I'm sayin', yeah, yeah

See, I've been blessed to be raised by a woman so strong

'Cause even when I did things wrong

You would show me just the way that I should carry on

You kept me safe and you protected me with all you had

And any time I was in need you gave your very last

Without you by my side I never could survive

I wouldn't be the woman standin' here before your eyes

You taught me strength and you gave me guidance

Whenever faith was lost, you were there to find it

And all because a mother's love is unconditional

With all my heart and all my soul I wanna let you know

That I thank you (I thank you) And I love you (I love you)

And I will never place anyone above you

Said I thank you (I thank you) And I love you (Love you, oh)

Never place anyone above you, yeah

You have given me life, and I just want you to know

That you're the reason I'm here today, I will never let go

To everything that we share and nothing can compare

I thank you, I thank you, I thank you, is what I'm sayin', yeah

I remember wakin' up, early Monday mornin'

With my new dress and my new shoes with the buckles on 'em

And you would kiss my face and say I love you, babe

And you would be right there to take all of my fear away

And when he broke my heart, you said it was his loss

And not to think about it, you're better off without him

Remember when they said that I was never gonna make it?

You said it's yours and all you gotta do is go and take it

Said I thank you (I thank you) And I love you (I love you)

And I will never, ever place no one above you

Said I thank you (I thank you) And I love you (Love you, oh)

And I will never, ever place no one above you

See, you have given me life, and I just want you to know

That you're the reason I'm here today, I will never let go

To everything that we share and nothing can compare

Said I thank you (I thank you) And I love you (I love you)

And I will never, ever place no one above you

I said I thank you (I thank you) And yes, I love you (Love you, oh)

And I will never, ever place no one above you

See, you have given me life, and I just want you to know

That you're the reason I'm here today, I will never let go

To everything that we share and nothing can compare

I thank you, I thank you, I thank you, is what I'm sayin'
