Mama

My mama’s death anniversary is not until May 10th, but I could not help but remember her today when I heard the lyrics to Il Divo’s song "Mama." It really hits home, especially since I was not able to see her for 2 years before she passed away. I’m pretty sure she sees my work right now and I thank her for making me who I am.

'And I know you believed in all of my dreamsAnd I owe it all to you, Mama.'

Thank you Mama.

Mama

[Verse 1]Mama thank you for who I amThank you for all the things I'm notForgive me for the words unsaidFor the timesI forgot

[Verse 2]Mama remember all my lifeYou showed me love,You sacrificedThink of those young and early daysHow I've changedalong the way

[Bridge]And I know you believedAnd I know you had dreamsAnd I'm sorry it took all this time to seeThat I am where I am because of your truthI miss you, I miss you

[Verse 3]Mama forgive the times you criedForgive me for not making rightAll of the storms I may have causedAnd I've been wrongDry your eyes

[Bridge]

[Verse 4]Mama I hope this makes you smileI hope you're happy with my lifeAt peace with every choice I madeHow I've changedAlong the wayAnd I know you believed in all of my dreamsAnd I owe it all to you, Mama
