I try to sleep as long as I can I pull the covers over my head
I pray that there's some way That life could skip a day to Monday
I try to count my blessings It's a long, long list
For a girl who has so much There's so much that I miss
On days like this I wish I could
Go to town, buy you a car Says I love you inside of heart
And one that makes you laugh Pick your flowers from our yard
You can set them in the window In a mason jar
Dad'll take our photograph
One, two, three, smiles say cheese Oh, I wish it could be that way
Every Mother's Day
Maybe someday I will let go But right now I'm still hanging on
Maybe one day God will bless me With a daughter of my own
We'll have a love I've never known And she could
Go to town, buy me a car Says I love you inside of heart
And one that makes me laugh
She'll pick me flowers from our yard I'll set them in the window
In a mason jar And Dad'll take our photograph
One, two, three, smiles say cheese Oh, I wish it could be that way
Every Mother's Day
One, two, three, smiles say cheese Oh, I wish it could be that way
Every Mother's Day
Every Mother's Day
