Mother’s Love

(Verse 1)
I used to think you were made of steel and light,
Warm food on the table, my clothes folded right.
Until I saw you rub your shoulder in the hall,
Leaning your weight against the kitchen wall.
You’d drink cold coffee just to keep your eyes open,
Holding together everything that was broken.
“Go on,” you’d whisper, “don’t mind me,”
But your hands were rougher than they used to be.

(Chorus)
Your love wasn’t a shout, it was a steady hum,
The bandage on the knee, the “better days will come.”
You didn’t give me wings, you gave me the ground,
And carried the storm so I’d never hear the sound.
Your love is the air I forgot how to breathe,
The debt I can’t pay, now I finally see.

(Verse 2)
I called you old-fashioned, said you didn’t understand,
While you were putting every cent into my hand.
You let that blue dress fade away in your cart,
To buy me a future, you buried your art.
I asked, “Don’t you miss it? The life you had planned?”
You just touched my hair with a trembling hand,
And said, “Honey, I traded a dream for a soul,
Watching you shine is what made me whole.”

(Chorus)
Your love wasn’t a shout, it was a steady hum,
The bandage on the knee, the “better days will come.”
You didn’t give me wings, you gave me the ground,
And carried the storm so I’d never hear the sound.
Your love is the air I forgot how to breathe,
The debt I can’t pay, now I finally see.

(Bridge)
Now I’m the one counting hours in the dark,
Now I see the tired lines, the permanent mark.
You don’t have to be a soldier anymore,
Put down the shield, leave the key in the door.
You weren’t a hero in a cape or a crown,
You were just the one who refused to let me drown.

(Guitar/Instrumental Break – Soft and Melancholic)

(Chorus – building to a crescendo, then dropping to a whisper)
Your love wasn’t loud, but it filled up the room,
The light in the window, the scent of the bloom.
You didn’t push me to fly, you taught me to rise,
You took every hit and looked me in the eyes.
Your love is the book I was too young to read,
Now I’m on every page, every word, every deed.

(Outro)
I’m coming home early, turn off the light,
The kitchen is clean and the world is alright.
Let me make the coffee, let me fold the clothes,
How much I love you… only God knows.
(A soft, shaky breath)
Yeah… I see you now, Mom. I see it all.
