He's My Everything
Even though you're only 4
To me you mean so much more
Than you my love may ever know
Regardless of where life makes you go
And no matter what anyone ever says to you
My love for you has always been true
And no one in my life will ever compare to
The love in my heart I hold for you
A lot of time has passed
And you are growing up so fast
Our time together is never enough
And walking away is always rough
I try not to let you see me cry
But it's never easy to say goodbye
As a mom my mistakes were more than a few
And the price I paid was with you
And I live with that every day
But the reminders never go away
Because of you I still try
To you my son I will not lie
You bring out a strength in me
That before I was too blind to see
You've gotten me thru my darkest days
And though for now you they may raise
I promise to never give up the fight
Perhaps one day you just might
Understand what we've been thru
And know I never gave up on you
I struggle day in and day out
But for you is what it's all about
And one day here very soon
We'll have more than just Sunday afternoon
I promise you I'll make this right
Until then I won't give up the fight
Mommy loves you, my little man
And I will continue to do all I can
Because home with me is where you belong
And this has gone on for far too long
But we've seen worse so we can see better
I love you to the moon and back
Now and Forever!!!!!!!
