mama

what makes you happy

what makes you smile

and when you smile please

is it for real

i know you're not one

one to pretend

even when i was a child

you grow up too fast

and have to be brave

braver than most strong men

that i've ever seen

sing your song mama

sing it out loud

i wanna hear your voice

it's lovely sound

little girl

you can come out now

the danger's all gone

you can come out

all that you've held

was too much to hold

so let it all go now

and you will become gold

sing your song mama

sing it out loud

i wanna hear your voice

it's lovely sound

sing your song mama

sing it out loud

dance freely singing

you're beautiful now

laughter and tears

gracing your face

the music of your strength

held up this place

your daddy's right here now

you can let go

he's holding it all now

and healing your soul

sing your song mama

sing it out loud

i wanna hear your voice

it's lovely sound

sing your song mama

sing it out loud

dance freely singing

you're beautiful know

there's something

i'm trying to tell you and

i've tried to tell you before and

each time that i profess it

it just leaves me wanting more and

i think you are beautiful

and i'm proud of you

what i'm trying to say is

i love you

i love you
