She Believed In Me
I have just heard a country song on the radio and I want to use it as a memory
for a wonderful lady.
She's up there waiting
I know she will be watching over me
She brought me into this world of ours
and guided me through life
She encouraged me to be
Whatever I wanted to be
and I know
She believed in me .
She was there to watch my first steps
as I walked
She was there to hear my first words
When I talked
She was there to pick me up
When I would fall
She was there to answer
My every call
She lives for me now
In my heart and memory
And I know
She believed in me .
She told me it was ok
For a man to cry
She chastised me
Whenever I tried to lie
Right from the early days of my youth
She taught me to tell the truth
Yes she taught me to see
How wonderful
Life can be
and I know
She believed in me.
Mother I miss you
To all you taught
I've tried to be true
I know we'll meet again
Someday
I know you had to go
Away
And Mother
I will always
Believe in you.
