I pull the covers over my head 
I pray there's some way 
That life could skip a day to Monday 
I try to count my blessings 
It's a long, long list 
For a girl who has so much 
There's so much that I miss on days like this 
I wish I could go to town 
Buy you a card 
That says 'I love you' inside a heart 
And one that makes you laugh 
Pick you flowers from our yard 
You can set 'em in the window in a Mason jar 
Dad will take our photograph 
One two three 
Smile, say cheese 
Oh I wish it could be that way 
Every mother's day 
Maybe someday I will let go 
But right now I'm still hanging on 
Maybe one day God will bless me 
With a daughter of my own 
I'll have love I've never known 
She could go to town 
Buy me a card 
Says 'I love you' inside a heart 
One that makes me laugh 
She'll pick me flowers from our yard 
I'll set 'em in the window in a Mason jar 
And dad will take our photograph 
One two three 
Smile, say cheese 
Oh I wish it could be that way 
Every mother's day 
One two three 
Smile, say cheese 
Oh I wish we could be that 
Every mother's day...
