To My Mother

Mom, you already know yours is the best hug
And for sure, mine is the best smile
When I see you happy, smiling
A mother's love is unlike anything else in the world

And the day drags on for a month
When you aren't around
The house feels like a mess
Even with everything in its place

The sparkle is missing, the joy
The peace that's contagious
The boundless energy
You carry in your eyes

Mom, you already know yours is the best hug
And for sure, mine is the best smile
When I see you happy, smiling
A mother's love is unlike anything else in the world

And the day drags on for a month
When you aren't around
The house feels like a mess
Even with everything in its place

The sparkle is missing, the joy
The peace that's contagious
The boundless energy
You carry in your eyes

There are no gifts, gold, or words
That could ever surpass
The best hug
Like the one you give us

So this song overflows
With a piece of what I feel inside
I'm waiting for you to come home
To show you and see you smile!

Mom, you already know yours is the best hug
And for sure, mine is the best smile
When I see you happy, smiling
A mother's love is unlike anything else in the world
