Mamma you gave life to me, turned a baby into a lady
And mamma all you had to offer was a 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 love's 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
And 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's 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 give will always live
You'll always be there every time I fall
You are to me the greatest love of all
You'll take my weakness and you make me strong
And I will always love you till forever comes
And when you need me I'll be there for you always
I'll be there your whole life through
I'll be there this I promise you, mamma
I'll be your beacon through the darkest night
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
Till we meet again until then goodbye
