Lyrical Logic

I know I’ll never have the mom most do.
I know I’ll never have the urge to call with big news,
But I will write to you.

You don’t know my name.
You don’t know I exist.
But you have always been the mom I needed
In some of the hardest moments of my life.

From the first time I heard that song—
When you sang:
“Always loved by me,
You’re gonna be”—
My torn and broken heart
Found what a mother’s love
Should be.

I’ll never be able to call you my mom.
I’ll never get a hug from you.
But you’ll always be the one
I turn to for comfort.

From your music
To your acting,
In every moment
That I needed something—
You were there.

I can’t express enough
What your sharing meant to me—
Sharing yourself with the world,
Sharing yourself with me.

You’ve always meant so much
To the young girl
Who has always loved you.
