My Mother, My Everything Song

 

By Nightengale Ben-Onyeukwu

(Verse 1)

Mummy works so hard, no days off or pay

But her love is strong, it brightens every day

A mother's job, it never ends at all

Through sleepless nights, she answers every call

(Chorus)

You hide your pain, but smile so bright

Your heart is strong, a guiding light

My role model, you show me the way

Chase away the darkness, make everything okay

(Verse 2)

Nine months I lived inside you, tiny and new

Swimming like little fat worm and fish, kicking through and through

You felt the pain, your love never ceased

A precious gift, forever released

(Chorus)

You hide your pain, but smile so bright

Your heart is strong, a guiding light

My role model, you show me the way

Chase away the darkness, make everything okay

(Bridge)

Early mornings, you wake up before the sun

Just to get me ready, for all the fun

Sometimes you go hungry, but I never knew

You put me first, your love always true

(Chorus)

You hide your pain, but smile so bright

Your heart is strong, a guiding light

My role model, you show me the way

Chase away the darkness, make everything okay

(Verse 3)

Maybe I don't have fancy things, but that's all right

Your love surrounds me, warm and bright

No fancy meals, but home-cooked with care

A taste of love, that we always share

(Chorus)

You hide your pain, but smile so bright

Your heart is strong, a guiding light

My role model, you show me the way

Chase away the darkness, make everything okay

(Outro)

I may be silly, or do things wrong

But my love for you, will always be strong

My gold, my diamond, my guiding star

Thank you, Mum, for who you are
