You wore your heart on your sleeve,
Like a tree, where's the leaf?

'Cause you cared too much, about me.

We had it rough, growing up,
But I had you and that was enough

You were a single mom,

I bet that was tough

I never got to tell you despite those things
That happened before you left and had to go

I love you and I know that goes unsaid,
But I wanted to let you know
It's sad to say, that life goes on,
Cause I wish you would go on too

No chunk of change can take your place,
So I miss you and I'll see you soon.

I wish that you could see me now,
How I've grown up you'd be so proud
If you could watch me play, you'd cheer so loud
You taught me everything I know
I'll be my word, I'll keep playing shows
And I'll picture you, in the first row

I never got to tell you despite those things
That happened before you left and had to go

I love you and I know that goes unsaid,
But I wanted to let you know
It's sad to say, that life goes on,
'cause I wish you would go on too
No chunk of change can take your place,
So I miss you and I'll see you soon.

I won't lie, my life has gotten tougher.
I ask why, did I have to lose my mother
I know for sure, I'd trade you for any other,
But I'll be alright knowing
You don't have to suffer, anymore

It's sad to say, that life goes on,
'cause I wish you would go on too
No chunk of change can take your place
so I miss you and I'll see you soon.

It's sad to say, that life goes on
'cause I wish you would go on too
No chunk of change can take your place,
so I miss you and I'll see you soon.
