There was a time when I felt
That I held the world in my hands
There were times when I cried
And times when I tried to understand
There are memories of a life
So simple and real
That of a friend
And the memories remain
And the love that I feel
Will never end
So What's that you say Mom?
You need nothing in return?
Just to know you didn't fail?
That somehow you helped to heal
Even when you were gone
You knew I needed you
And somehow I continued on
With the love you helped me gain
And the Lord by my side
And although you're far away mom
You're always in my heart
And you'll always --be my guide
So today I will pray for you
And tomorrow I will remember--
And I hope you'll understand
That the dreams I have are part of you
And you and the Lord are my guiding hand
And somehow in the darkness
The light will appear
As I always knew it would
For as you taught me to know
The Lord loves us all now I understand
So What's that you say Mom?
You need nothing in return?
Just to know you didn't fail?
That somehow you helped to heal
Even when you were gone
You knew I needed you
And somehow I continued on
With the love you helped me gain
And the Lord by my side
And although you're far away mom
You're always in my heart
And you'll always --be my guide
Although Your far away mom
You're always in my heart
And you'll always be my guide© ds2000
