00:15I wrote these words when I was younger Trying to explain your heart
00:23How you held the weight of everyone Without ever falling apart
00:29I called you strong, called you a fighter Like a lion standing tall
00:37But I understand it deeper now After watching you through it all
00:44You were healing people quietly Even when your own heart hurt
00:51Giving pieces of yourself away Like that's just what mothers do first
00:58You are strong Even when the light gets dim
01:04You keep carrying everybody Even when it empties you within
01:12You were hoping the darkest hours A head reaching through the pain
01:20And after all these years I'd still write every word the same
01:31You always knew when something hurt me Before the tears could even show
01:39And somehow just your presence Could make a heavy feeling go
01:46And yeah we're both hard headed sometimes We clash and both defend our side
01:53But love was never the question Not even for a night
02:00The older I get, the more I see Strength doesn't always look loud to me
02:07Sometimes it looks like tired I'm still choosing love
02:12Every day and night
02:16You are strong You are strong More than you will ever know
02:22You're the healer of the broken The safest place I've ever known
02:30You are hope in the darkest hours You're the calm inside the rain
02:37And after all these years I'd still write every word the same
02:46She is our mother Lonely, my hero
