The clock ticks by

Though the hands move slow

I've counted the minutes

When I'm feeling low

The time may pass

And your face might fade

But my memory of you

Will always remain

I've cried many tears

I've had some hard times

But even through that

I can always smile

Your warmth is still here

I feel it everyday

And with that brightness

Both our light can shine away

What keeps me going

What keeps me strong

Is knowing your with me

Is knowing you're my mom
