Mom and Me

Mom and me
 I can't remember the last time 
Mom and me 
I can't see her smile
Mom and me 
but I know I'm her child
 though I acted a little bit Wild
 she held me hold me as I walked the land 
Mom and me
She caressed me and nurtured
She kept me safe and secure 
She was close to me 
As a leaf on a tree 
I could come and always talked to her 
She would be there to comfort me
 I could come and always talk to Mom you see 
Anything God and she 
Made of it was sure 
Lord Jesus help me, help me to remember Mom 
And me going down the stairs
Off to church without a care 
That Sunday hat 
The cross on her neck
The necklace I can hardly wait to one day wear that flowered belt 
And to bring home a Godly Man
A husband 
With my child then off the church 
Our family goals then I'll be a "mom and me "oh you see God instilled that in me
