(This was a tough one to write, and it took me years to figure out what, or how, to write what I felt for my beautiful mother.)
Mama
Music & Lyrics by Thomas G Robinson
I don't know how many times I've tried to write this song for you
It's hard to put into words exactly how I feel for you
It seems like forever since I've been able to go and see you
But not a day goes by that I'm not thinking about you
Oh Mama, Mama
I've got to get down on my knees you know I've got to pray
And thank the Lord for all He's done for me in every way
And for giving me a mom whose brought me so much joy
For always making me feel like I was such a special boy
Oh Mama, Mama
You are forever young and beautiful
You’re so wise and humble too
You are the one that God has blessed
With a kind heart and loveliness
I’ve always felt this strength from you
You always know just what to do
And mother I admire you
Without you we wouldn’t know what to do
Oh Mama, Mama
I never understood those parents when I heard them say
That they’d disown their children for living in any alternate ways
The pain and hurt, I’ve seen it in their eyes, it’s sad to see
Because, Mom, you’ve always loved me unconditionally
Oh Mama, Mama
You are cut from a different cloth
You don’t quit, you’re never “off”
You think you’re aging drastically
But, I’ve never seen anyone age so beautifully
Dad is gone and you still keep goin’
I know it’s hard, the wind keeps blowin’
The sun still rises, the moon does too
And I’m so glad none of that has stopped you
Mama, Oh Mama
You are forever young and beautiful
You’re so wise and humble too
You’re the one that God has blessed
With a kind heart and loveliness
I’ve always felt this strength from you
You always know just what to do
And Mother I admire you
Without you we wouldn’t know what to do.
Oh Mama, Mama
Oh Mama, Mama
I just want to take the time to tell you
How I feel for you and love you
Oh Mama, Mama
You know you’re never far from my heart
Every day in every way
Not just on Mother’s Day.
But all the time you’ll hear me say
Oh Mama
I love you more than words can say
I always will, always will
You mean everything to me, you’re my
Mama, Mama
I don’t think you will ever know just
How much you mean to me
How much you mean to me
You’re my Mama
I thank God every day for blessing me
Blessing me
How beautiful my mom is, yes
You’re my Mama
Maybe one day I’ll write a song just about you
To honor you
To let you know how much I love you …
