The Love a Mother Should Give

Going through old messages And I see your name pop up I smile to myself at all the memories we had I take a breath and know you've moved on Its been to long to try and go back The dreams forgetten the feelings burried deep Try hard to breath and calm my frustraion I know it ended like it had to But still I wish you could be here To watch me grow up To watch me live my life To do the things a parent should To love me like I need you too I wish that things could be the same The life I thought we'd live together The stage I thought id cross The smile I thought id see on your face The pride I know that you'll still feel When you hear your baby girl is growing up Its been a year but it feels like twenty Since I last felt like you cared You call to talk and say I love you But it never sounds like you do at all I'm growing up on my own The love of famly that's all around But its nothing compaired to the love a mother should give
