Lyrics A Mother's Son - Derek Ryan

A Mother's Son

I still can see the rising sun and feel the morning breeze
The faithful day I set on my way to try and find my dreams
The world was right before my eyes, my home I left behind
My mother held me close to her heart and said with a tear in her eye
No one’s perfection, but learn from the wrongs that you do
Be true to yourself, your family and friends
And the woman that cherishes you
A loving touch can be worth so much more
Than the dimonds and rings we adore
It’s how you were raised to be
When your away from me, your mother’s son
Though these simple words stayed in my mind the time went rolling by
And down the track I found my way back, from the bustle and cities bright lights
Now the music flows and love it grows, my sweetheart I have met
At night I hold her close to my heart and promise I’ll never forget
No one’s perfection, but learn from the wrongs that you do
Be true to yourself, your family and friends
And the woman that cherishes you
A loving touch can be worth so much more
Than the dimonds and rings we adore
It’s how you were raised to be
When your away from me, your mother’s son
