Mother

Mother, you mean the world to me
From the day I was born till this very moment
You've cared for me like noone else
It is that love that has kept me going
It is the knowledge that you'll always be there for me-
that has helped me in times of sorrow.
The relief I get when I know that you'll stand by me-
at all times,is too great to be told.

When I'm in trouble,
and people shut their doors at me
And friends I've loved, look down on me
I know that there'll be one door that will forever be open for me,
Waiting for me to enter where you will be waiting
to hold and to comfort me
to say that all will be right
to wipe away my tears.

And that's why Mother,
YOU MEAN THE WORLD TO ME.
