Mom

Verse 1

As I sit here and think,

With my mind so clear,

I’m wishing you were here

I know you didn’t want to depart…

Because you knew you’d break my heart

I was fortunate to know and love you for 28 years

Times have passed since you were near

Pre-Chorus

Every memory plays like a song in my head

Your voice still whispers everything you said

Chorus

At times I feel like a ticking bomb

Just because I don’t have my mom

But I know you’re watching me from up above

Taking steps with me wherever I go

You’re a person I can’t forget

You were my mom and also my friend

Verse 2

Some nights I talk to the ceiling

Like you’re right in the room

Trying to hold on to the feeling

That I’ll see you again soon

Life keeps moving, but my heart stays

In the warmth of your embrace

Pre-Chorus 2

Even when the world feels cold and alone

I feel you with me, I’m never on my own

Chorus

At times I feel like a ticking bomb

Just because I don’t have my mom

But I know you’re watching me from up above

Taking steps with me wherever I go

You’re a person I can’t forget

You were my mom and also my friend

Bridge (soft, almost spoken)

If love could build a staircase to the sky

I’d walk it barefoot just to see your eyes

Until that day, I’ll live the way you showed

With strength, with grace, and an open soul

Final Chorus (gentle, comforting)

I don’t feel so lost when I feel your love

Even in silence, you’re enough

You’re watching me from up above

And I carry you wherever I go

Forever a part of who I am

My mom… my angel… my friend

Outro

As I sit here and think

With my mind so clear

I smile through the tears

Knowing… you’re still here
