Mamma
You gave life to me
Turned a baby into a lady
Mamma
All you had to offer
Was the 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
That something so strong
Someday will be gone, 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
But the love you gave me will always live
You ll always be there every time I call
You offered me the greatest love of all
You take my weakness and you make me strong
And I will always love you til forever comes
And when you need me
I ll be there for you all the way
I ll be there all life through
I ll be there this I guarantee
Mamma, I ll be
I ll be there through the darkest nights
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
