This Is My Song Dedicated To My Mother That Died

This Is My Song Dedicated To My Mother That Died
Posted By: Shana Smith on August 19, 2005






Intro (talked): You taught me what was wrong
You taught me what was right
You taught me how to walk
You taught me different words
My first words were daddy
But the word I can’t stop saying now is MOMMY

Chorus: Mommy I miss you
I can’t stop thinking about ya
I feel like my life is incomplete
Why did you have to leave me?

Mommy come back to me
I feel like life is so unfair
No one can ever replace you
I miss you and need you in my life

Leader: Mommy why did you have to go
I was only three years old
I never got the chance to even say goodbye
I never thought my life would end up this way
See I looked around upon a crowd filled with hurt and pain
Full of tears and sorrow
Longing for a new and brighter tomorrow
Mommy I miss you
Please somebody fill in the missing piece
Because my mommy is gone

Chorus: Repeat 2x

Leader: It would be a different story if daddy were here
But instead he’s with somebody so much not like you
I don’t understand why he never talks about you
See the other woman now has said one or two things about you so negative and not like you
I don’t believe her, how could she lie about someone she doesn’t even know
Another thing I just don’t understand
How could daddy cover all the pictures of you
He hides them facedown under bundles of clothes
He doesn’t even know that I know that they’re there

Chorus: Repeat 2x

Run: Mommy come back to me
I need a shoulder to cry on
I need a mother like you to talk to
Mommy come back to me
I need my mother back in my life
I’m tired of shedding so many tears
Can you wipe my hurt
Can you wipe my fears
Can you wipe away my tears
Mommy please come back to me

Chorus: Repeat until end
