Everything's the way that it should be right now
As the rain pours down on Mother's Day Weekend
My head circles and spins around
So much I want to say
Wish that I could tell you what you taught me but
What you taught me can't be spoken in words
Was on a turbulent airplane ride and
You were the calm in my storm
You were caught between love and obligation so
You worked even harder at what you could control
Your smile shone brighter somehow but
Not as bright as your soul
When I was lost in pain and confusion
I hurt you so bad but
When it was time to go again
You were still smiling and waving your hand
Ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo
That last time I came through the doorway
You were too weak to raise your head
I couldn't admit to myself that
I was about to lose my best friend
All those times I took you for granted
All those times I was trying to be cool
Youth can spoil the greatest treasures and
My greatest treasure was time with you
People say you can hear me when I talk to you but
I don't know what to believe so
I'll hold you in my heart and
One day
Maybe one day
You'll welcome me back home
Ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo
Ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo
