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 now 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 will 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 offered me the greatest love of all

You take my weakness and you make me strong

And I will always love 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 broker 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 you say goodbye

Till we meet again, until then, goodbye
