Mama

(Verse 1)

It’s my second Mother’s Day without you here, Mum,

And the silence somehow feels louder every year.

I smile through the moments, hold my family close,

But there’s an empty chair beside the love I miss the most.

I’m a mother, I’m a grandmother too,

Giving all the love I once learned from you.

And though my world is filled with laughter and light,

There’s a missing piece in my heart tonight.

(Chorus)

Because Mother’s Day will never be the same,

Since heaven called your name.

I carry your love in everything I do,

But I still reach back for you.

Through every hug, every tear that falls,

I still hear your voice in my soul.

And even with all this love around me,

I’m still your daughter missing her mum deeply.

(Verse 2)

The grandchildren laugh, and I see your smile,

In the little things that stay with me all the while.

Your kindness lives in every word I say,

Your love still guides me every day.

But some wounds don’t ever truly heal,

No matter how much joy life makes you feel.

And on a day that’s meant for love and grace,

All I want is one more embrace.

(Chorus)

Because Mother’s Day will never be the same,

Since heaven called your name.

I carry your love in everything I do,

But I still reach back for you.

Through every hug, every tear that falls,

I still hear your voice in my soul.

And even with all this love around me,

I’m still your daughter missing her mum deeply.

(Bridge)

So I’ll light a candle just for you tonight,

And thank you for the love that shaped my life.

Though heaven holds you far from me,

You’re still the heart of this family.

(Final Chorus)

Mother’s Day will never be the same,

But I’ll forever speak your name.

In every child and every memory,

Your love lives on endlessly.

And until the day I see you once again,

I’ll hold you close within my heart till then.

Because even through the joy life brings,

A daughter still needs her mum for everything.
