(Gentle talking drum rhythm)
Yeah, yeah
Thinking of you, Mama
I know you’re watching over me
Always in my heart
Early morning sun is rising high
I look up to the blue and open sky
I remember all the stories that you told
Your words were precious more than any gold
Every morning light I feel your grace
I’m searching for the comfort in your face
Even though you’re far away from sight
You’re still the one who makes my future bright
Oh Mama, you’re the star that leads me home
In every single step I walk alone
Your love is like a melody so sweet
It keeps me standing firmly on my feet
Oh Mama, I miss you every day
But I know you’re never truly far away
Yeah, you’re never far away
I carry all the lessons that I learned
The love and all the respect that you earned
I walk with pride because you showed me how
To hold my head up high and stand my ground
People say that time will heal the pain
But you’re the sun inside my falling rain
It’s a beautiful life you paved for me
My guiding angel, forever wild and free
Oh Mama, you’re the star that leads me home
In every single step I walk alone
Your love is like a melody so sweet
It keeps me standing firmly on my feet
Oh Mama, I miss you every day
But I know you’re never truly far away
Resting in the peace you finally found
Your spirit’s dancing on this holy ground
I hear your voice in every gentle breeze
Bringing my heavy heart down to its knees
I love you, Mama, yes I always will
Your memory is deep and standing still
Oh Mama, you’re the star that leads me home
In every single step I walk alone
Your love is like a melody so sweet
It keeps me standing firmly on my feet
Oh Mama, I miss you every day
But I know you’re never truly far away
Yeah, you're never far away
Mama, can you hear me?
Your light is shining down
Forever in my heart
