A Mother's Kiss

There has to be some magic
In every mother's kiss
It drives away the sadness
And replaces it with bliss

It scares away the monsters
That lives beneath the bed
It calms our fears and nightmares
As she kisses us on our head

And when we get those boo-boos
She'll kiss the pain away
And when our heart is broken
Her kiss knows what to say

She saves a very special kiss
For when we say goodbye
Even tho it's filled with tears
As your mother starts to cry

Don't take her kisses for granted
For soon they will be gone
So keep her kisses within your heart
Cause that's where they all belong
