Goodnight Mommy

Goodnight, Mommy

How I wish there were FaceTime up in Heaven,

So I could see your smile whenever I yearn.

How I wish there were visiting hours,

Just to hold you close for a little while.

Pre-Chorus

I'd tell you all the things I've kept inside,

The tears I've hidden, the nights I've cried.

Just one more moment, one more embrace,

To see the love upon your face.

Chorus

Goodnight, Mommy, can you hear my prayer?

I still feel your love surrounding me everywhere.

Please visit my dreams when the stars softly shine,

Hold my hand once more, just for a little time.

I miss you more than words could ever say,

But I'll keep your love with me every day.

Goodnight, dear Mommy, until we meet again,

Where Heaven and forever will never have an end.

How I wish there were birthdays up above,

I'd fill your home with flowers and endless love.

I'd kiss your cheek and whisper once again,

"I love you, Mommy," just like back then.

Bridge

Though I cannot see you, I know you're near,

Your gentle voice still calms my every fear.

Until the day God calls me home to you,

I'll treasure every memory we've been through.

Final Chorus

Goodnight, Mommy, watch over me tonight.

Wrap me in your love until the morning light.

Though Heaven keeps us far apart for now,

Love will find a way somehow.

I'll close my eyes and dream of your embrace,

Until I see your smiling face.

Goodnight, dear Mommy, my heart will always say,

I love you more with every passing day.
