lyrics

This mother's life
This mother's life
This mother's life

I remember that day
It's like the whole world stopped
Everything that I planned went away
Something special rising to the top
It was you so bright-eyed and ready
Yea I had to get ready to raise you
Embrace you

You have filled my life with so much pride
Love and light
Every now and then I wonder if I
I'm doing alright
But as soon as I see your beautiful smile
I know everything is fine
I'm doing just fine

This mother's life
This mother's life
You give me purpose beyond myself
I wouldn't trade it for nothing else
This mother's life
This mother's life
Did you know that you make me better
You changed my life forever

This mother's life
This mother's life
This mother's life

You keep me going
You keep me up
To love to teach you to guide you protect you
Even when it gets tough
And you see me working
Building this life for you
Always reaching for my dreams
So you know how to reach yours too

And you have filled my life with so much pride
Love and light
Every now and then I wonder if I'm
I'm doing alright
But as soon as I see your beautiful smile
I know everything is fine
I'm doing just fine

This mother's life
This mother's life
You give me purpose beyond myself
I wouldn't trade it for nothing else
This mother's life
This mother's life
Did you know that you make me better
You changed my life forever

You inspire me to reach higher and higher
Than ever before
I'm so glad you came into my life
Into my heart
You changed

This mother's life
This mother's life
You give me purpose beyond myself
I wouldn't trade for nothing else
This mother's life
This mother's life
Did you know that you make me better
You changed my life forever

I know I tell you over and over again
That you mean so much to me
It's so true
You inspire me
You've changed my life forever
Thank you
