Unconditional
Caring for the family
Mama, if I had one wish
If would truly be to love someone other than my children
Unconditionally
I watched you, Mama
Day after day
I saw you, Mother
Time and time again
Sacrificing your needs
But not just for us
For strangers, too
And people that you barely knew
Mama, if I had one wish
It would truly be
To love someone other than myself
Unconditionally...
Heaven is no longer
Missing its angel
But, Mama, I'm missing you
Tell Daddy I said hello
And one day I'll see you two
Often I've said
If I had to do it all over again
I'd do it all over again
And I wouldn't be a thing
Butt now that you’re gone
I can clearly see
If---
No, When
I learned to love others unconditionally
Only then will I be free
Oh, Mama, if I had one wish I
It would truly be
To love someone other
Another and another
My sister and my brother
My husband and my friend
And my soul mate
Unconditionally
