I can't begin to show you
The love for you in my heart
You've been my mother, my friend, and my pal
Right from the very start
You gave me strength when I needed it
And hope and courage too
You sacrificed so much for me
Like only a mother would do
I know in my heart I haven't
Always measured up to par.
But I love you with all my heart and soul
For the wonderful mother you are
