Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You knew my silence
Before I spoke a word
You saw the storm in me
Before I even heard
You filled the gaps I left
With patient, steady hands
You held the pieces up
And taught me how to stand
[Pre-Chorus]
When I was falling short
You never walked away
You were the morning side
Of every darkest day
[Chorus]
Mama, you were there
When I could not be strong
Mama, you were there
You carried me along
Where I fell behind
You covered what I missed
Mama, you were there
And I live in all you give (all you give)
[Verse 2]
You packed the lunchbox up
You tied my shoes just right
You made a home out of
A hard and crowded night
You turned my scars to maps
You turned my fear to flame
You said, "Keep going, child"
And I became my name
[Pre-Chorus]
When I was falling short
You never walked away
You were the morning side
Of every darkest day
[Chorus]
Mama, you were there
When I could not be strong
Mama, you were there
You carried me along
Where I fell behind
You covered what I missed
Mama, you were there
And I live in all you give (all you give)
[Bridge]
If I have any grace
It learned your gentle way
If I have any heart
You taught it how to stay
So take this little song
For all you couldn't hear
For every quiet lift
For every hidden tear
[Final Chorus]
Mama, you were there
When I could not be strong
Mama, you were there
You carried me along
Where I fell behind
You covered what I missed
Mama, you were there
And I live in all you give (all you give)
Mama, you were there
You were there, you were there
Mama, you were there
You made me who I am (who I am)
