She's the love of my life There's everything with a smile She's My Mother, My Sweet Mother She can take the pain away with just one look That's My Mother, My Sweet Mother You're the picture in the frame With all the colours of the rainbow I'm far from ashamed to say I love you so And here I lay at home tonight It's late but I can't sleep tonight Forgive me if I take my time But I just have to let you know You're so special She taught me how to pray We play games everyday With My Mother, My Sweet Mother Even if I made no sense you listened patience That's My Mother, My Sweet Mother She would sing a sweet song till I shut my eyes And kiss my head and say goodnight And I feel safe with you by my side You're there for every step in my life I'm sorry if my life is unkind I just have to let you know You're so precious If only this was true I'm in a cold dark wet room I was an orphan now I am 22 I've never known my muuuuum A picture faded by the sun that's all I have Left alone with nothing more but what I am It's not enough this life is tough when there is no one To call My Mother, My Sweet Mother, My Sweet Mother
