Twenty years of my life, just like a star in the night
She lit my way and watched me as I lay
When the tears were abound
She would turn me back around
Oh Mama can’t you see, you mean everything to me
Stormy times when I fell down
She’d lift me from the ground
Put the fire back inside o’ me
She never let me down
The days we cried, the days we laughed
Even the days we fought
The times we wiled away
Hours on our deepest thoughts
Mama, our time is always on my mind
The nights when shadows chased me around my room
You laid beside me, pulled me from my gloom
Mama, can you hear, whispers in the air?
Arigato
Shattered pieces on the ground
Fallen without any sound
Yet you still could hear them fall
The shattered mirror ball
Helping re-build again
Towering so tall again
I can see my dreams
And touch the stars
Short words and my insolence
Sorry if I wore you down
Now I see all you gave me
I will never let you down
The days we cried, the days we laughed
Even the days we fought
The times we wiled away
Hours on our deepest thoughts
Mama, please don’t cry, you helped me to fly
The nights when shadows chased me around my room
You laid beside me, pulled me from my gloom
Mama, our dream lives on in me
Forever
The torch you gave to me
I hold for all to see
It helps me though bad weather
The warmth is comforting
I know you’re here
You’re up above
The sky shimmers with love
My heart lies open
To you my shining star
The days we cried, the days we laughed
Even the days we fought
The times we wiled away
Hours on our deepest thoughts
Mama, please don’t cry, you helped me to fly
The nights when shadows chased me around my room
You laid beside me, pulled me from my gloom
Mama, can you hear whispers in the air?
Arigato
