Did you dream of the woman I'd be, when you carried me?

Did you long to caress my face, and hold me?

Was I all you ever wanted in an adoring child?

Or did I disappoint you since I was knee high?

Do you wonder why I am the way I am?

Longing and yearning for the simple touch of your hand

All those dusk filled evenings, when the dew is thick

I lie awake in a lonely bed, wishing, hoping, for the love I never had

As you watched me grow were you proud?

I looked up to you, like you danced on a cloud

In moments of hurt, did you consider my pain?

Were you like an umbrella to shield the rain?

In all I've done for you, mommy dear

Did you realize, I love you was all I needed to hear?

When tears flowed like April showers, did you wipe them away?

It's sad because the day you left, you took my heart away

I would have given anything to make you stay.
