Lyrics

Mother?s Day
(Written by Phil Christie)

Sunday morning, month of May
I have come for her this day
With flowers in a bright bouquet
They always made her smile

Willows dance and whisk the air
As a gentle breeze blows through my hair
Up ahead, the clearing where
I?ll stay with her awhile

Bells from the cathedral
Chime like heaven through the trees
They speak to me in old familiar ways

Chorus:
She shines upon me now like moonlight in the rain
She listens every time I sing
Now when the day is done her memory will remain
Here in the love I have to bring on this Mother?s Day

The sun feels like a warm embrace
Soft upon this resting place
Sometimes I still see her face
In twilight afternoons

The little boy inside the man
Tries so hard to understand
But God must have another plan
For taking her so soon

Time goes by so quickly
Precious moments slip away
But time can?t take away what?s in my heart

(chorus)
