I'Ll Always Love Your Mother

I'll always love your mother Despite the things she's done As you've filled my soul with stardust Wrapped in moonbeams full of fun You've the empathy of angels With eyes brighter than the sun It was six hours from your first breath When I held you in our home You filled the rooms with sunshine And more joy I've ever known I love to watch you sleeping Your face caressed by the moon Or when you wake from bad dreams And come running to my room I understand now one thing As I've watched you grow We don't live in a house But at the end of a rainbow
