A Mother's Day Lyrics - Jim Brickman

Mom and Dad were reading in the den 

Mom said, "I'm gonna go to bed, it's late" 

She went to the kitchen to make three school lunches 

Another night in a mother's day 

Put the cereal bowls out for breakfast 

Set the coffeemaker for 6 a.m. 

Sewed a loose button on brother's shirt for him 

Checked sister's math homework, sent a note to the teacher 

Added eggs to the grocery list 

Started a load of wash, made sure the doors were locked 

Put water in the puppy's dish 

Wrote a check to the children's piano teacher 

Turned the dishwasher on 

And Dad called out, "Honey, what's takin' you so long?"

Have I ever thanked you 

For everything you've done? 

Now all that I can say is 

"I love you, Mom" 

Hung some art on the refrigerator door 

And headed up the stairs 

Kissed all the children and helped sister comb 

Her wavy golden hair 

Washed her make-up off and turned on the bath 

Lay down in the moon's soft light and kissed Dad goodnight 

Have I ever thanked you 

For everything you've done? 

Now all that I can say is 

"I love you, Mom"

Thank you for nursin' me 

Through all those colds and fevers 

Thank you for believin' in me 

When they were no other believers 

And it's never too late to say 

"I love you, Mom"
