VERSE
You were my friend before I knew how much I needed you
A silent partner working overtime
Young as a tender early spring, so innocent and free
You had a kind of peace that’s hard to find

The years have shown us how to laugh at things I once cried through
One could say we grew together in that way
Making time for joy and play on courts and at the stage
Your cup is filled with love to give away

CHORUS
Woman of the sweetest heart and wisdom, how grateful I’ve become
To be part of you, your life, your heart, your soul
Mother of the deepest heart and passion, I try to find the words
And different ways to say I love you so…

VERSE
So now I’m setting out to pass a legacy
May we live to see her lose her heart as well
Working hard with all my love to weed out what is rough
And finding out that what is left is you

CHORUS
Woman of the sweetest heart and wisdom, how grateful I’ve become
To be part of you, your life, your heart, your soul
Mother of the deepest heart and passion, with strength to count upon
So dear to me the blessing that you are …

Woman of the sweetest heart and wisdom, how grateful I’ve become
To be part of you, your life, your heart your soul
Mother of the deepest heart and passion, how proud I’ve come to be
To come from you, is the finest gift I know
