Album: The Diary of a Band, Volumes One & Two
I don’t see you very often
And it’s sad that we’re apart
I just want you to know
That you’re always in my heart
My sweet mother, you gave me life and gave me light
You are one in a million
With power to make whole world bright
You taught me pride in my achievements
And stand up for myself
The value of compassion
And the love of someone else
My good mother, raised me up to be a man
You’re just one in a million
Tell you every way I can
I know it wasn’t always easy
Never enough to go around
Did the best that you were able
And best is what you found
Hey now, mother, don’t make you swell with pride
You’re sure one in a million
Make me feel so good inside
Six thousand miles between us Don’t think about that now
Telephones and photographs have got to do somehow
My dear mother, you gave me love and made me whole
No matter where I wander
You’re in my lovin' heart and soul
