Mommy Lyrics

’Cause once a day your voice is everything I need
And all the things you’ve done gave me power to succeed
Listen, I fell so many times but you pulled me through
But in time I’ll find myself yeah, I hope you see that too

’Cause when I feel scared, sometimes I do
And when I feel scared, it seems that life is harder than I ever knew
Yeah when I feel scared, you are the only one who knows just what to say

So here am I to thank you

Hey there little girl, wake up and see
And take your time to grow, that is what you really need

And I cried so many times but you pulled me through
And I know it sounds cliché yeah, but I can’t live without you

’Cause when I feel scared, sometimes I do
And when I feel scared, it seems that life is harder than I ever knew
Yeah when I feel scared you are the only one who knows just what to say
So here am I to thank you
So here am I to thank you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

As said in this interview.
