Although she isn’t by my side
Her spirit will always be
I know she’s there to guide me
When I feel the most alone
When I doubt if I can really
Really do this on my own
I know that all it takes
Is to simply close my eyes
And ask my special angel
Because I know she’s wise
She whispers softly to my heart
With words so sweet and true
The ones Mom used to say to me
I believe in you
I hope that when it’s my time
To leave my life on Earth
My legacy is like my Mom’s
So my children know their worth
