MOM

You fed me well, you made me strong
You taught me to know right from wrong
You made me feel that I belong
You showed me the value of a song

You gave me life, you gave me love

You always knew the way I feel
You used the words you thought might heal
You convinced me it was no big deal
Your advice would keep it real

You gave me life, you gave me love

Broken hearts you liked to mend
It was not in your nature to offend
Birthday cards you'd always send
You knew the value of family and friends

You give me life, you give me love

You left me now, you've gone away
I'm left behind, I have to stay
So I'll just have to pray
I'll meet you again another day

You always had that special touch'
I loved you so very, very much

You gave me life, you gave me love

I love you Mom,
Susie
