Mama Love

Please forgive me, when I go wrong-

Teaching me right and wrong

Must have taken you long.

I cannot fail to remember

All the cold and lonely nights of December

When we sat and wondered why we never had a visit from Santa.

Mama you mean the world to me

And I wonder what I would do to thank thee

For unimaginable are your deeds for me.

Though I was never the happiest

You saved me from all tempests

And for that you are the greatest.

You were Mama and Papa at the same time

Though you never owned a dime

I cannot fail to acknowledge I grew up just fine.

You were light at the end of the tunnel

Nine months I clang to your tummy

You never tired I was your puppy.

And after all that you loved me

When no one else saw a thing in me

I'm grateful and I cannot repay ye.

Through my darkest of nights

Mama, though they turn off my lights

I will have you in my sight.

Mama, I cannot repay

All the good things you did in May

I would never forget if I may.

I love you and I would do anything

Just to please you I give everything

I will forever and ever your name sing, Susan!
