Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I try to sleep as long as I can
I pull the covers over my head
I pray that there's some way
That life could skip a day to Monday
I try to count my blessings
It's a long, long list
For a girl who has so much
There's so much that I miss on days like this
I wish I could go to town
[Chorus]
Buy you a card
That says 'I love you' inside a heart
And one that makes you laugh
Pick you flowers from our yard
You can set 'em in the window in a Mason jar
Dad'll take our photograph
One, two, three
Smile, say cheese
Oh, I wish it could be that way
Every mother's day
[Instrumental]
Maybe someday I will let go
But right now I'm still hanging on
Maybe one day God will bless me
With a daughter of my own
I'll have love I've never known
She could go to town
[Chorus]
Buy me a card
That says 'I love you' inside a heart
And one that makes me laugh
She'll pick me flowers from our yard
And I'll set 'em in the window in a Mason jar
And dad'll take our photograph
One, two, three
Smile, say cheese
Oh, I wish it could be that way
Every mother's day
