Mama

You are there for me
Whenever I'm in the time of need
Whenever I'm down
You pick me up
Whenever I feel alone
You are around

And even though you will be gone one day
I just want to take the time to say
That I couldn't see myself without you
Cuz nobody else can share the love like me and you

Mama, you are there when I need you
And when I need someone to see me through
Without you, I don't know where I'd be
All I want to say is thank-you for loving me

You taught me everything I didn't understand
And you taught me to do the best that I can
You told me to keep my head up
Don't give up
No matter what

And even though you will be gone one day
I just want to take the time to say
That I couldn't see myself without you
Cuz nobody else can share the love like me and you

Mama, you are there when I need you
And when I need someone to see me through
Without you, I don't know where I'd be
All I want to say is thank-you for loving me

Mama, can't you see that without you
My life would be all wrong
That's why I'm singing this song
To dedicate my love to you

Mama, you are there when I need you
And when I need someone to see me through
Without you, I don't know where I'd be
All I want to say is thank-you for loving me
