Living In Forever

You bore me, you raised me, now you're in eternity
A child growing up you gave me all necessity
During my troubles you tried to save me
Just like a mother would do for her baby

I see you everywhere in life, you shine so bright
You guide my steps, and hopefully I'll get it right
I cannot see you but you're in my sight
Your presence is felt both day and night

Someday, you will take my hand to a very special land
A place with no time, no hourglass full of sand
Life has troubles but with you in my heart I can withstand
Mother, the life I shared with you was grand
