Mamma You gave life to me Turned a baby into a lady
Mamma All you had to offer Was the promise of a lifetime of love
Now I know There is no other Love like a mother's love for her child
And I know A 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
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 so 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
