Looking at the house where you grew up
Nothing much have changed like frozen in time
Thinking of the choices that you made
Set out on your own ending up alone
And I know
Your life it wasn't easy
You never had a lot
You gave it to your children
No you were never selfish
You never let us down
And you sacrificed yourself just so
We would have a home

Turn the pages in the book you wrote
Pictures of your life faces I don't know
Memories that never fade away
Like it was today and not so long ago
And you should know
How I wish that you were here now
Hoping that you somehow
Could have had a better live

And if only I have told you
Yeah I know I could have showed you
How thankful I am
You were the one who gave me life

Mother I will make my life worth living
Mother I will do it all for you
Mother I know we won't be together
But I'll make it up to you
And I know
Your life it wasn't easy
You never had a lot
You gave it to your children
No you were never selfish
You never let us down
And you sacrificed yourself

And if only I have told you
Yeah I know I could have showed you
How thankful I am
You were the one who gave me life
