Mother's Day Lyrics

Mother's Day

Is sad for me

No celebration in sight

Refuse salute

For woman whom

Never thought I did right

On top of that

I have children

Never acknowledged me

Maybe twice

During their lives

One card would I see

Oh Mother's Day, oh Mother's Day

A day of pain and sorrow

To be forgotten, unacknowledged

Leaves me feeling hollow

Bookended

By those I loved

Who only feel hate

Can't go back

To be perfect

They call me half-rate

Here I go,

Go on again

That being good enough

For them was not quite

Good enough

In their eyes

All my efforts Despised

Oh Mother's Day, oh Mother's Day

A day of pain and sorrow

To be forgotten, unacknowledged

Leaves me feeling hollow

I long for the love that should be mine

But instead I'm left with memories

Of rejection and hurt that slowly unwind

My heart broken by those

those who should have been kind

Oh Mother's Day, oh Mother's Day

A day of pain and sorrow

To be forgotten, unacknowledged

Leaves me feeling hollow

So on this day of mothers near and far

May you find peace wherever you are

And may your love shine through

like a bright star

Even when others can't see

how special you are
