Mamma you gave life to me

Turned a baby into a lady

And mamma all you had to offer

Was a promise of a lifetime of love



Now I know there is no other love like a mother's

Love for her child

I know that love so complete someday must leave

Must say goodbye



Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word and I will cry

It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye



Mamma you gave love to me

Turned a young one into a woman

And mamma all I ever needed

Was a guarantee of you loving me



'Cause I know

There is no other

Love like a mother's love for her child



And it hurts bad

That something so strong

Someday will be gone, must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word and I will cry

It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye



But the love you gave me will always live

You'll always be there every time I call

You offered me the greatest love of all

You take my weakness and you make me strong

And I will always love you 'til forever comes



And when you need me

I'll be there for you all the way

I'll be there all life through

I'll be there this I guarantee



Mamma, I'll be

I'll be there through the darkest nights

I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight

I'll be your shelter through the raging storm

And I will love you 'till forever comes



Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word and I will cry

It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye



'Till we meet again...

Until then...

Goodbye
