Mama, how do I begin
To explain this situation we're in?
Angels heard the beautiful words that you prayed
And showed me the way to you

And they knew you were in love
So they sent me down from heaven above
Angels cried and kissed me goodbye, I was long gone
This is my song to you

Oh, my song could never be
As sweet as the song you sing to me
Oh, my love could never be
As deep as the love you give to me

When your fingers touch my skin
And you kiss my lips and tickle my chin
I breathe you in, oh Mama, I'm where I belong
This is my song to you

Oh, my song could never be
As sweet as the song you sing to me
Oh, my love could never be
As deep as the love you give to me

Oh, one day I will be grown
And I know, I'll have a child on my own
Remember me this way, 'cause some day
I'll be long gone, singing my song to you

Oh, my song could never be
As sweet as the song you sing to me
Oh, my love could never be
As deep as the love you give to me
