Mom's Song

Mom, you worked from dawn till dusk Never asked for much, just did what you must

Tired eyes and weary hands All for us, you made your stand

In shadows of a man so proud His words cut deep, but you stood unbound

Now you breathe where skies are wide No more hiding from his pride

Now you're free, Mom, you're free Living life for you finally

Holding hands with someone new Happy days are overdue

Years of whispers turned to cries You wiped our tears and dried your eyes

Through the storm you held us tight Now you're shining in the light

Every sacrifice you made Led to this, your bright cascade

New love's warmth on your face Gone the shadows we erased
