[Verse 1]

All the nights you stayed up late

Worrying 'bout my fate

Putting your dreams on hold

So I could have a chance to grow

[Chorus]

You never asked for much in return

Just wanted to see me learn and earn

To watch me find my way

That's all you wanted, day by day

[Verse 2]

Through the tears and through the fears

You dried my eyes, calmed my cries

Sacrificed so selflessly

To give me everything I need

[Chorus]

You never asked for much in return

Just wanted to see me learn and earn

To watch me find my way

That's all you wanted, day by day

[Bridge]

No matter how far I may roam

You'll always be my guiding light, my home

A love so pure, so true

Mom, this song's for you

[Chorus]

You never asked for much in return

Just wanted to see me learn and earn

To watch me find my way

That's all you wanted, day by day

[Outro]

That's all you wanted, day by day
