Johnny ST Tai - The Mother I Never Had

There is always a little voice
Telling me that she will be there
Doesn't matter how far away
She is someone who truly cares

The tree wouldn't grow so tall
Without the sun's warmth and glow
The sea wouldn't be so vast
If the rain never come again

When I've wandered off the path
When my heart grew cold and dark
When confused and afraid
You were always there to steer me straight

It's you who raised me up
You showed me what life's about
You taught me what's right and wrong
And showed me how to survive and be strong

Even though you're no longer at my side
And your gait is no longer young and spry
The kindness has never left your eyes
And your voice is always in my mind
Somewhere far across the sea I can still hear you call
Telling me that you're proud of what I have done so
Let me sing you this song one more time
Let me thank you one more time

You are my guiding hand
The mother I never had
The lighthouse in my night
The North Star in my sky
You are the reason why
I know how to read and write
You allowed me to go free
You gave me the strength to be

When the world has grown too harsh
And I lash out from the pain
It is you who will bring me back
And show me how to live again

The tree wouldn't grow so tall
Without the sun's warmth and glow
The sea wouldn't be so vast
If the rain never come again

When I fall down upon my knees
When I feel betrayed and weak
When the day seems so far away
Who is always there to help me stand

You are my guiding hand
The mother I never had
The lighthouse in my night
The North Star in my sky
You are the reason why
I know how to read and write
You allowed me to go free
You gave me the strength to be
