"My Mother"

 It's hard to remember
 summer or winter
 When she hasn't been there for me

 friend [bad word] 
 I can always depend on
 My mother
 That's who I mean

 I've taken for granted
 seeds that she planted
 She's always behind every thing

 teacher a seeker
 both arms outreacher
 My mother
 That's who I mean

 Wish I could slow down
 The hands of time
 keep things the way they are
 If she said so 
 I would give her the world
 If I could... I would

 My love and my laughter
 From here ever after
 Is all that she says that she needs

 friend [bad word] 
 I can always depend on
 My mother
 That's who I mean
 My mother
 That's who I mean' that's who I mean
