What an amazing song to mothers. I’ve always loved hearing this song and playing piano for it. BUT, what a treat when I decided to play AND sing it…WOW, it must have taken me about 2 hours and 25 takes!! lol, seriously. My voice is shot but I eventually got it all out :p Hope you enjoy and thanks again to all of the loving mothers out there :D
Phil

Lyrics:
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 coffee maker for 6:00am;
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,
Turn 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 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 nursing 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.’
