Lyrics

Mm-mm
Mm-mm
I know I wasn't always easy to love
I know I made you worry more than enough
There were nights I shut the whole world out
And you still stayed when I couldn't figure me out
I thought I'd have forever to make things right
Forever to call you, forever to hold you tight
I kept saying I'll tell her someday
Now someday is a word that takes my breath away
If I could have one more minute
One more moment in your arms
I'd forget every word I never said
And tell you how much you meant to my heart
Hey mom, I hope you hear me tonight
'Cause I still talk to you when I turn off the lights
I still reach for my phone when something happens to me
And I remember you're somewhere I can't reach
And God, I would give anything, just to hear you say my name
Just to feel your hand in mine, just to have you here again
If there's a piece of heaven where the ones we love can hear
I hope you know I miss you more with every passing year
You gave me strength when yours was almost gone
You taught me how to keep breathing and carry on
You loved me on the days I couldn't love myself
You made me feel like I never needed anybody else
I never understood the price you had to pay
For every little sacrifice you quietly made
Now I hear your voice when I don't know what to do
And every time I find my way, I find a little bit of you
I wish I knew the last time was the last time
I wish I'd held you just a little longer
I would've memorized the sound of your voice
I would've told you, mom, you made me stronger
Hey mom, I hope you hear me tonight
'Cause I still talk to you when I turn off the lights
I still reach for my phone when something happens to me
And I remember you're somewhere I can't reach
And God, I would give anything, just to hear you say my name
Just to feel your hand in mine, just to have you here again
If there's a piece of heaven where the ones we love can hear
I hope you know I miss you more with every passing year
Mom, I'm sorry for every time I walked away
For every "I'm fine" when I needed you to stay
You were my home before I knew what home was
And now I'm learnin' how to live without your love
Hey mom, I hope you hear me tonight
'Cause I still talk to you when I turn off the lights
I still hear your voice when I don't know what to do
And every time I find my way, I find a little bit of you
If I'm still standing, it's because you taught me how
If I still believe in love, it's because you showed me how
And when life gets heavy and I don't know where to go
I close my eyes and I'm your little girl again, safe at home
