Each day I awake,
I see the sun shine.
When I lay down to sleep,
The dreams are all mine.

All the joy that I feel,
All the pain that I hide.
She may be far away,
But she's right by my side.

She showed me the right,
When I did the wrong.
She gave me the strength,
When I couldn't go on.

The love that she taught,
Compares to no other.
She gave me my life,
There's no love like my mother's.
