She stood so strong on that cold,
day
The day she knew would have to come
I held her hand as she looked above
To a light she'd always loved
Her hand was cold,
but her heart was warm
With a love for her special one
Her face was bright, but her life was tall
As she looked at her precious son
I rocked him as a baby,
I fed him as a child,
I heard him call my name out in the night.
I helped him take his first step,
oh, and I cried when I heard his first words.
I wish they all could see
through a mother's eyes.
They laid him down, she kissed his face
And wiped the hair from his eyes
She walked away so silently
With a love that never dies
Yes, her hand was cold,
but her heart was warm
With a love for her special one
Her face was bright, but her life was tall
As she looked at her precious son
I rocked him as a baby
I fed him as a child
I heard him call my name out in the night
I helped him take his first step
When I cried when I heard his first words
I wish they all could see
through a mother's eyes
I wish they all could see
through a mother's eyes
Thank very much.
