Two little girls in a small, safe room
Mama was the sun, the stars, the moon
Held our hands through every storm
Always kept us safe and warm
She fought hard when times got rough
Taught us both to be brave and tough
Even when her heart was breaking
Her beautiful smile, she’d continue faking
She was both the calm and the flame
The way we inspired to be just the same
Right or wrong she took our side
Stood tall at every practice, cheering with pride
She gave us her heart, gave us her days
Worked those jobs, made her own way
She built our world with tired hands
Gave us more then we’ll ever understand
Now we stand here, strong and grown
Raising babies of our own
And everything that we’ve become, every ounce of wisdom
Is all thanks to our super mum
She’d dry our tears before they fell
Whispered the secrets we still tell
Taught us how to defend our name
But also when to take the blame
She believed in all our dreams
Even when we couldn’t
She was both the sword and the shield
That kind of love you’ll always feel
From scraped knees to broken hearts
She was always there to pick up the parts
She gave us her heart, gave us her days
Worked those jobs, made her own way
She built our world with tired hands
Gave us more then we’ll ever understand
Now we stand here strong and grown
Raising babies of our own
And everything that we’ve become, every ounce of wisdom
Is all thanks to our super mum
If love could give back all that we owe
We’d wrap our arms around her and never let go
Times gone by and we’re getting older
It’s time to make up for the things we never told her
You gave us your heart, gave us everyday
Here’s for the thank you’s I know we didn’t say
You built our dreams with steady hands
Picked us up when we couldn’t stand
Now we’re here, strong and grown
Raising our babies the way we were shown
And everything we’ve become, everything that we know
Is all because of you, because you never let go
Yeah everything we know, everything we’ve become
Wouldn’t be possible without you as our mum
