I hope my children grow up
Knowing what all I gave up
So they could be healthy
Could be loved and happy
And I hope they make something
Of themselves, when I am nothing
I would die for them
Commit any sin
I will love them no matter who they are
or what they become, or how far
they travel, they will come back
I will love them, no matter what they lack
My son, I hope will be strong
My daughter smart, and they both live long
I would willingly go to hell
My soul I would sell
Just to love them
And be with them.
Most any mother
or father
Knows the truth in what I say
and feels what I feel each day.
Children as you grow older
And get so much bolder
Remember what we give
And try to live
Each day to the fullest
Do only your best
And know everything has a place
And you can never replace
Each moment, there gone in a blink
We are standing on the brink
Of this life and we gave ours
For yours....
