Charice - A Song For Mama lyrics

rate me

She said, "My son I beg of you

I have a wish, that must come true

The last thing you can do

For yo' mama

Please promise me that you will stay

And take my place, while I'm away

And give the children love each day"

I had to cry, what could I say?

I tried so hard to find a word

I prayed she would not see me cry

So much to say, that should be heard

But only time to say "Good-bye"

To my mama

They say in time, you will forget

Yet still today, my eyes are wet

And still I try to smile

For my mama

Now soon there'll be another Spring

And I will start remembering

The way she used to love to hear us sing

Her favorite song, "Ave Maria"

Ave Maria

Then I will feel, the deepest joy

Yes, for my mama

And I will feel, so proud that I

Made the wish come true

All for my mama

The family's left, I feel so numb

I should've known this day would come

And still I try to smile

For my Mama

It hurts so much to see them go

They have their lives to lead, I know

Now I can watch their children grow

And hear, again, "Ave Maria"

Ave Maria

And I feel

The deepest joy

Yes, I'll kiss them all

For my Mama

And I will feel

So proud that I

Made the wish come true

All for my Mama

Still, this seems

So small

For all

She done

For me
