Mamma you gave life to me
Turned a baby into a lady
And mamma all you had to offer
Was a promise of a lifetime of love
Now I know there is no other
love like a mother's
Love for her child
and I know
love so complete
someday must leave
Must say goodbye
Goodbye's the saddest word
I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time
I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word
and I will cry
It'll break my heart
to hear you say goodbye
Mamma you gave love to me
Turned a young one into a woman
and Mamma all I ever needed
Was a guarantee of you loving me
'Cause I know there is no other
love like a mother's
Love for her child
And it hurts so
That something so strong
Someday'll be gone
Must say goodbye
Goodbye's the saddest word
I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time
I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word
and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you
say goodbye
But the love you
give will always live
You'll always be there
every time I fall
You want to be the greatest
love of me
You take my weakness and
you make me strong
And I will always love you
till forever comes
and when you need me
I'll be there for you always
I'll be there
your whole life through
I'll be there
this I promise you mamma
I'll be your beacon
through the darkest night
I'll be the wings
that guide your broken flight
I'll be your shelter
through the raging storm
And I will love you
till forever comes
Goodbye's the saddest word
I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time
I will hold you near
Someday you'll say
that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear
you say goodbye
Till we meet again
until then goodbye
