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

I know that 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 are to me the greatest love of all

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.
