I wish I never had written this song.
My mother passed away in 2013 and this is the first song I've written for her.
This song doesn't even begin to explain how much I wish she was here with us today.
I only wish that my voice still reaches you somehow.
lyrics
Playing a song at your grave is not the same
Where are you now, I need your voice to keep me sane
You were there for me since the day you gave me life
Always saying the right things, always giving everything you had
I know it's too early to say
Mama your son misses you
But death came for you anyway
But we will never forget you
I want to go back in time
To cherish one more hug
To give you one more kiss
To sing you one more song
To hear you say, I’m proud of you son
To tell you how much I love you
