Heart at Home

Is it really time again, the mornings always come too fast  Another day ahead, sometimes I can’t remember the last

As I stumble out of bed the thought lingers in my head . Do I have the strength and love to do this again

Then I see the cutest smile the minute I walk in , The sparkle in your eyes, a heart I don’t have to win

And as I pick you up and hold you tight , I know this season’s worth the fight

Help me God to cherish these precious days

When I think of all the places I could travel to.  And all the hobbies and adventures I want to do

never used the training,  Degree’s just hanging. upstairs on the wall

I’d be the first to give it up again loving you is worth it all

I remember as a child the smell of fresh homemade bread  As she would sew a dress for me, we’d dream and play pretend

It was the simple things that meant so much Feeling safe inside the coziness

Of me and Mama being right at home

When I think of the places she could’ve traveled to   All the hobbies and adventures she wanted to do

Never used the training Degree was hanging upstairs on the wall…

Thank you Mama, you gave it up for me  Your love was worth it all

Seems like yesterday you were tugging on the hem of my dress

Always doubted what they said about you growing up so fast

But here we are, step on the bus. A kiss goodbye, love you so much

Wipe the tears,, eighteen years have gone by

When I think of all the places that I will travel to  And all the hobbies and adventures that I can do

Maybe use the training  Degree’s still hanging upstairs on the wall

Looking back I’d give it up again  Loving you was worth it all

When my mind begins to wander,  and my thoughts begin to roam

I look at you—you keep my heart at home.
