Goodbye's (The Saddest Word)

Mamma you gave life to me

Turned a baby into a lady

And mamma all you had to offer

Was a promise of a lifetime of love

Now I know there is no other

love like a mother's

Love for her child

and I know

love so complete

someday must leave

Must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word

I'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time

I will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word

and I will cry

It'll break my heart

to hear you say goodbye

Mamma you gave love to me

Turned a young one into a woman

and Mamma all I ever needed

Was a guarantee of you loving me

'Cause I know there is no other

love like a mother's

Love for her child

And it hurts so

That something so strong

Someday'll be gone

Must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word

I'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time

I will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word

and I will cry

It'll break my heart to hear you

say goodbye

But the love you

give will always live

You'll always be there

every time I fall

You want to be the greatest

love of me

You take my weakness and

you make me strong

And I will always love you

till forever comes

and when you need me

I'll be there for you always

I'll be there

your whole life through

I'll be there

this I promise you mamma

I'll be your beacon

through the darkest night

I'll be the wings

that guide your broken flight

I'll be your shelter

through the raging storm

And I will love you

till forever comes

Goodbye's the saddest word

I'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time

I will hold you near

Someday you'll say

that word and I will cry

It'll break my heart to hear

you say goodbye

Till we meet again

until then goodbye
