Mommy will you love me always
Even when I fall even if I just bend
Hold me close Mommy please
I’ll always love you you’re home to me
I dropped my crayons on the bedroom floor
Blue and yellow rolling to the door
I tried to clean it with my tiny sleeve
But colors stayed where they shouldn’t be
I looked at you and held my breath
Waiting for a voice I was scared to get
But you sat down softly next to me
And said Little one just come and see
Mommy will you love me always
Even when I fall even if I just bend
Hold me close Mommy please
I’ll always love you you’re home to me
You found my socks under the chair
My storybooks were everywhere
I said I’m sorry I tried my best
You smiled and pulled me to your chest
You brushed my hair before the light went low
Hummed the song that only we both know
You tucked the blanket under my chin
And kissed the places fear had been
Mommy will you love me always
Even when I fall even if I just bend
Hold me close Mommy please
I’ll always love you you’re home to me
Now I know the way you look at me
Is not about the perfect child I try to be
You love my questions my sleepy eyes
My messy hands my little lies
You love me when I laugh too loud
You love me when I let you down
Every night and every morning
You choose me without warning
If I grow up and lose my way
If I forget the words to say
I’ll remember what you knew
I was always safe with you
Mommy will you love me always
Even when I fall even if I just bend
Hold me close Mommy please
I’ll always love you you’re home to me
Goodnight Mommy hold my hand
Tomorrow I’ll try again
No matter what I do
I know I’m loved by you
