Lyrics Watch You Be A Mother - Jonny Diaz

Watch You Be A Mother

You do it all
You always have
Ten years and two young kids
You wear so many hats
I see you patient
I see you kind
But I see you in a new light
How you love those kids of mine
And you ask me, do I love you like I did at 24
And I just laugh because I don’t know
I love you more
You’re a giver, you’re a lover, you’re a friend
You’re a fighter, fighting for this love to win
So many roles that you cover and you play 'em like no other
But I think that I love you the most
When I watch you be a mother
When I watch you be a mother
Your white shirts
Have all got stains
Whether hauling kids or healing wounds
You spin so many plates
How you do it, I just don’t know
But there’s a million ways your love and grace
Make our house feel like home
And you say that you don’t look quite like you did at 24
But if I’m honest, right now I’m attracted to you more
You’re a giver, you’re a lover, you’re a friend
You’re a fighter, fighting for this love to win
So many roles that you cover and you play 'em like no other
But I think that I love you the most
When I watch you be a mother
When I watch you be a mother
When I see the way you cover them
With prayer from your knees
I see the way you lift them up
Above your very needs
And I see the sacrifices
'Cause you love them like no other
I can’t take my eyes off of you
When I watch you be a mother
You’re a giver, you’re a lover, you’re a friend
You’re a fighter, fighting for this love to win
So many roles that you cover and you play 'em like no other
But I think that I love you the most
When I watch you be a mother
When I watch you be a mother
