A Mother Like You Lyrics by JJ Heller

2019

[Verse 1]
You gave me a drawer in your kitchen
You gave me the room with a view of the yard
Whatever the hurt, you knew right where to kiss it
You gave me the best of your heart
[Verse 2]
And you carried my rocks in your pocket
Flowers and feathers and butterfly wings
You had an answer for all of my questions
You showed me wonderful things
[Chorus]
I know that it hasn't been easy
I hope that I love like you do
’Cause I know that this world would be better
If everyone had a mother like you
[Verse 3]
You make the best macaroni
We never cared that it came from a box
The mom in the stands always clapping her hands
Started cheering and still haven't stopped
[Verse 4]
And you held me when I came home crying
'Cause someone said something that just wasn’t true
I always said that Janelle was my best friend
But really it's always been you
[Chorus]
I know that I haven't been easy
I hope that I love like you do
'Cause I know that this world would be better
If everyone had a mother like you
Mother like you
[Verse 5]
Our second was born in September
I still can't believe I have kids of my own
I look in their eyes and I can't help but wonder
Who will they be when they're grown?
[Chorus]
I know it won't always be easy
I hope I can love like you do
’Cause I know that my kids will be better
If they have a mother like you
If I am a mother like you
’Cause I had a mother like you
