| Mother-Father before I forget
|
| Thank you for all that you have been to me And just in case you are wondering I love you
|
| I know that our difference caused
|
| Us to waste so much of our time we could have used
|
| Getting to know each and one another
|
| But now that I’ve grown into my own
|
| And learned some things about life
|
| I now can see that it wasn’t easy to raise someone like me I remember those days when you used to sit me down
|
| And try to school me about the plenty opportunities in life
|
| Hoping and wishing and praying that something would stick
|
| And somehow click within this mind of mine
|
| See you used to say, if you throw enough on the wall
|
| Something is bound to rub off
|
| And I’m here to tell you
|
| That you don’t have to really worry about me at all
|
| Listen now
|
| There was no limit to all the things that you’ve done
|
| And would have for me my sisters and brothers
|
| And I’ll never understand how you would talk all day long
|
| And just as you said, in one ear and out the other
|
| Isn’t it funny how things change when you get older?
|
| Now I know that I’ll never find another
|
| Love like yours inside anyone else |
