The same age that I am today
Is for how long you've been the best mother one could pray.

My heart wouldn't beat this fast
If it weren't for your love that lasts
Time may be changing me
But my love and respect wouldn't for thee

You showed me how beautiful life could be
As I saw you the first time my eyes could see
I may be an ache in the head
But you care for me instead

A decade and eight
That's how long you've carried the weight
If there's one thing I want to pay, mother
Is the love you gave us so tender

For so long, I've been reckless
But you fix me like a mess
If there's one thing I want to say, mother
Is that, I'll love you forever


If there's one thing I want to stay,
It is you, my mother.
