I've seen your tears When you thought I wasn't looking I heard the "I love you's" When you said be careful I felt your strength When you thought you were weak When you held me I felt your pain When I disappointed I saw your sacrifices When you tried to hide them I felt your love When you whispered goodnight Now it is my turn I hope you don't mind I will hide the pain and sacrifices I hope from your eyes I want you to hear the "I love you's" When I say goodbye I want you to feel joy When you look into my eyes I want to make your last days here Ones you don't regret I want you to feel my love The same as the day we met Mother you are strong You are my safe place Mother you are mine No one will take that away You are my best friend My forever secret keeper No matter how old I am You will be my mother forever
