Mamma

You gave life to me

Turned a baby

Into a lady

And mamma

All you had to offer

Was a promise of

A lifetime of love

Now i know

There is no other

Love like a mother's

Love for her child

And i know

A love so complete

Someday must leave

Must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word i'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time i will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word and i will cry

It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

Mamma

You gave love to me

Turned a young one

Into a woman

Mamma

All i ever needed

Was a guarantee

Of you loving me

'cause i know

There is no other

Love like a mother's

Love for her child

And it hurts so

Something so strong

Some day'll be gone

Must say goodbye

Oh goodbye's the saddest word i'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time i will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word and i will cry

It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

But the love you give will always live

You'll always be there every time i fall

You are to me the greatest love of all

You take my weakness and you make me strong

And i will always love you till forever comes

And when you need me

I'll be there for you always

I'll be there your whole life through

I'll be there

This i promise you

Mamma

I'll be your beacon through the darkest night

I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight

I'll be your shelter through the raging storm

And i will love you till forever comes

Goodbye's the saddest word i'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time i will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word and i will cry

It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

Till we meet again

Until then

Goodbye
