It takes a lot to know what is love

It's not the big things, but the little things

That can mean enough

A lot of prayers to get me through

And there is never a day that passes by

I don't think of you

You were always there for me

Pushing me and guiding me

Always to succeed



CHORUS

You showed me

When I was young just how to grow

You showed me

Everything that I should know

You showed me

Just how to walk without your hands

'Cause mom you always were

The perfect fan



God has been so good

Blessing me with a family

Who did all they could

And I've had many years of grace

And it flatters me when I see a smile on your face

I wanna thank you for what you've done

In hopes I can give back to you

And be the perfect son



CHORUS - repeat



You showed me how to love

You showed me how to care

And you showed me that you would

always be there

I wanna thank you for that time

And I'm proud to say you're mine



CHORUS - repeat



'Cause mom you always were,

mom you always were

Mom you always were,

you know you always were'

Cause mom you always were... the perfect fan



I love you mom
