I love you mom, I miss you

I hope the words on this page can express how I feel
cause without you here it's been kinda hard to deal
your absence has left a void I have been unable to fill
but at my breaking point I notice your presence still
the lessons you taught were always tough and stern
but they had to be cause as a child I was slow to learn
I wish I could go back and get just a little more time
to make a few more memories and make your years more sublime
I know I wasn't an easy child to raise
and for how I turned out you deserve so much praise
for a while I was so wild and caused you nothing but heart ache
but you never gave up on me cause you knew what was at stake

Chorus
I know you've gone to somewhere beyond the moon and the stars
But I can hear your voice in passing as I sit here reminiscing
I still think about you each and every day
and I know your the light that helps to guide my way

As I think about it I shed a tear or two
you left so suddenly I didn't even know what to do
I didn't even have a chance to say good bye
a lot left unsaid so I hold my head and sigh
It happened so quick the car wrecked so suddenly
I'm glad you didn't suffer and your paid ended abruptly
I almost lost my sister the very same day
but your angel must have saved her and moved her out of the way
she blamed herself for so long but she's found her way
I know your here for us each and every day
Everything that's good in me it came from you
and I know its your strength that helps to get me threw

Chorus
I know you've gone to somewhere beyond the moon and the stars
But I can hear your voice in passing as I sit here reminiscing
I still think about you each and every day
and I know your the light that helps to guide my way

As I sit here and try to describe how I feel
there are times that is seems just a little to unreal
and I want to pick up the phone to call and hear your voice
but it cuts me like a knife to know that I don't have that choice
I know you would be proud of the man I have become
cause I didn't let the world tear me down and make me numb
I live my life for me and I do what I feel is right
my conscience is clear and I can sleep all threw the night
all you ever wanted was for me to find some happiness
and I wish I could have achieved it while you were still with us
cause you never got to meet your grandson or my wife
but I want you to know I lead a happy life

Chorus
I know you've gone to somewhere beyond the moon and the stars
But I can hear your voice in passing as I sit here reminiscing
I still think about you each and every day
and I know your the light that helps to guide my way
