From the time I can remember you, You had a smile to share. It seemed that there wasn't anything that you couldn't bear.

You'd always pray a prayer... That the arms of Heaven would care for me, And that I would be all I could be.

You've always been there, No matter what I've gone through.

You've given your life and care; I've always felt that love from you. My mother, my special friend. You've always cared, you've always shared, You've always been there Through your tears and prayers.

Mom, I wish there was a way that I, Oh, that I could pay you back... Caring endlessly... ...for all the times that you were there for me,

Through those long nights of a mother's life; And it amazes me how you saw the best in me.

You've always been there, Whatever I've gone through.

You've given your life and care; I've always felt that love from you. My mother, my special friend. You've always cared, you've always shared, You've always been there Through your tears and prayers.

And wherever I go, and whatever I do There will always be a special place for you. There won't be a day that goes by that I won't think of you.

You've always been there, No matter what I've gone through.

You've given your life and care; I've always felt that love from you. My mother, my special friend. You've always cared, you've always shared, You've always been there Through your tears and prayers.

She is the one they can count on for the things that matter most of all. She is their food and their bed and the extra blanket when it grows cold in the night; she is their warmth and their health and their shelter; she is the one they want to be near when they cry. She is the only person in the whole world in a whole lifetime who can be these things to her children. There is no substitute for her. Somehow even her clothes feel different to her children’s hands from anybody else’s clothes. Only to touch her skirt or her sleeve makes a troubled child feel better. — Katharine Butler Hathaway Everybody knows that a good mother gives her children a feeling of trust and stability.
