The Tenors - Mother

You were the first love that I’ve ever known
You were my shelter, a place to call home
All I’m becoming it came from your heart
you gave me a safe place for falling apart

You made me, you raised me, you held me, you praised me
You never let me dim my light
You were my rock, my strength, my reason
You always let me hold you so tight

Mother

Mother

I hear your words on my lips everyday
As I hold my angels and show them the way
Now I can see that you knew from the start
When you stayed beside me and my rebel heart

I pushed you, I dared you, I loved you, I scared you
we didn’t see eye to eye
Well nobody’s perfect, no love without hurting
You never meant to hold me so tight

Mother
Mother
Mother
Mother

When storms overtake us and life tries to break us I know that you’re not very far
Your words are my wisdom and now I am right where you are

For my Beautiful Mum ♥️ Ellen May ♥️ who I miss with my whole heart & soul every breath I take is because of you Mum.... you gave me life, you showed me love, a reason to go on I didn’t know how to to go on ....you taught me that I was worthy of love, when I told was I wasn’t lovable anymore .... you showed me I deserved a life without judgement, you showed me that I was important to someone & that I did matter in this World I made someone’s life happier....& that they truly needed me in their life just as I was, I didn’t need to change ♥️
Thank you Mum for loving me I have never found anyone who loved me like you did ♥️🌹🌷 I am constantly judged, belittled, alone, but until we meet again you are my Angel 🙏🏻 I hope you have found Peace at last growing old is lonely 😔.... I know what you mean now Mum I can’t wait to hug you again xx I 🙏🏻 it will be soon
“I’ll be seeing you “

Fraser, Clifton and Victor, we heard this song for the 1st time this morning on BT Toronto. We were sitting here preparing funeral arrangements for my wife's mother. She passed away at 100...one is never ready. We will be planning a Celebration of Life later in May. This is a beautiful song and so true for all of us. God bless you all. Thank you.

Heard this on PBS this afternoon. Beautiful composition, and the three of you were fantastic.

[jimmatheson]

Past all lyrics, lullabies and melodies of your memories ... mom's are forever ...

[danielapetrache]

I hope me mom can hear this song in haven!💞

[snizzlepop]

I really needed to hear this song right now...beautiful version fellas....I lost my Mother unexpectedly a year ago...I have never felt such pain and loss in my life. Every day is struggle for me, to figure out how to mourn the loss and to see my sweet Father lost and missing his other half. She was my support, protection, defender, and provider...I honestly felt I could accomplish anything because she believed in me. Please...if you still are fortunate enough to be able to hug and kiss your Mother...do so now...do not hesitate and never put off telling her how much you love her...because you just never know what the next day is going to bring.

I remember when i was a teen telling my mom i hate you!! What i would do now just to hold and sit with her. And I always tell my daughters now one day you’ll realize how much you really love your mom when they tell me that they hate me, go away you’re bugging me etc. This quarantine has really brought to my attention that you really don’t know what you have until it’s gone

[PatriciaSmith-rpkh]

This has been a tough Mother's Day for me. The first without her on this earth. But, I know she is with me. Thank you, Mom. RIP 🙏

[maj-britthogstrom]

A mother and all she stands for is a good model!🌷🌷💕💕
