Hey Mom Lyrics

Mmm

I know I wasn't always easy to love
I know I made you worry more than I knew it
There were nights I shut the whole world out
You still stayed when I couldn't figure me out
I thought I'd have forever to make things right
Took too long to call you, forever to hold you
I kept sayin' I'll tell you someday
Now someday is a word that takes my breath away

If I could have one more minute
One more moment in your arms
I'd forget every word I never said
And tell you how much I meant to your heart

Hеy, Mom
I hope you hear me tonight
'Causе I still talk to you
When I turn off the lights
I still reach for my phone
And something happens to me
And I remember you're somewhere I can't reach
And God, I would give anything
Just to hear you say my name
Just to feel your hand in mine
Just to have you here again
If there's a piece of a Heaven
Where the ones we love can heal
I hope you know I miss you more
With every passing year

You gave me strength when almost yours was gone
You taught me how to keep breathing and carry on
You love me on the days I couldn't love myself
You made me feel like I never needed anybody else
I never understood the price you had to pay
For every little quiet sacrifice you had to make
And now I hear your voice when I don't know what to do
And every time I find my way, I find a little bit of you
I wish I knew the last time was the last time
I wish I'd held you a little longer
I would've memorized the sound of your voice
I would have told you, mom, you made me stronger

Hey, Mom
I hope you hear me tonight
'Cause I still talk to you
When I turn off the lights
I still reach for my phone
And something happens to me
And I remember you're somewhere I can't reach
And God, I would give anything
Just to hear you say my name
Just to feel your hand in mine
Just to have you here again
If there's a piece of a Heaven
Where the ones we love can heal
I hope you know I miss you more
With every passing year

Mom, I'm sorry for every time I walked away
For every time I walked away
For every I'm fine, when I needed you to stay
You were my home before I knew what home was
And now I'm learning how to live without your love

Hey, Mom
I hope you hear me tonight
'Cause I still talk to you
When I turn off the lights
I still hear your voice
When I don't what to do
And every time I find my way
I find a little bit of you
If I'm still standing
It's because you taught me how
If I still believe in love
It's because you showed me how

And when life gets heavy
And I don't know where to go
I close my eyes and I'm your little girl again
Safe at home
