My Angel

Playing in the yard Being kids and getting dirty Living in our land of make believe I remember being young Thinking you were old at thirty Oh how we were so naive Now twice that age and still You're barely up the hill And I remember you as young and always will She's beautiful and courageous This angel who made us How'd she ever get to be so tough Wise beyond her years She can calm our deepest fears With her soft touch and words of love Growing up is never easy I still struggle everyday But the one thing I can count on in my life I'll always have my Mom They can't take that away And she always knows just how to make things right She's beautiful and courageous This angel who made us How'd she ever get to be so tough Wise beyond her years She can calm our deepest fears With her soft touch and words of love Oh Nobody lives forever And I know Someday that you'll be gone But you'll stay In my heart Now and always When you're in heaven Where you belong You're beautiful and courageous The sweet angel who made us A lifetime will never be enough I'll make it through the years But losing you's my biggest fear And I hope you know just how much you are loved I love you mom
