[1st Verse:]
As I sit and think about yesterday
I feel the pain inside (oh yeah)
All the troubles that burden my mind
They can't be pushed inside

So I'm counting on your love to guide me home
Thought these chapters of my life (uh huh)
You're my angel through the storm
(And you know I'll always love ya)
You're what keeps me going strong

[Chorus:]
Don't you know that mama ya k now I love ya
And if I could I'd build my world around ya
Why did ya have to go away
I'm missing all those sunny days
You see they came and go but still these empty feelings
Goes on and on dear lord I pray for healing
Wishing that you never went away
Nowl ike just ain't gonna be the same

[2nd Verse:]
Even though you're not
Here with me today
I still feel you around me
In every singe way

Missin' the times that you would hold me close
When I needed you the most (oh yeah)
Wiped the teardrops from my eyes
And walked with me through the storms of life

[Chorus:]
Don't you know that mama ya k now I love ya
And if I could I'd build my world around ya
Why did ya have to go away
I'm missing all those sunny days
You see they came and go but still these empty feelings
Goes on and on dear lord I pray for healing
Wishing that you never went away
Nowl ike just ain't gonna be the same

[Bridge:]
I loved ya enough to let you go
'Cuz your spirit will live on and on
I put all my faith inside of you
So you'll know my love is strong

And your soul it lives within me
For all eternity
(It lives on and on and on)
(And you know I'll always love you)
