The Perfect Fan (Tribute To Mother)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It takes a lot to know what is love
It's not the big things, but the little things
That can mean enough
A lot of prayers to get me through
And there is never a day that passes by
I don't think of you
You were always there for me
Pushing me and guiding me
Always to succeed
Chorus:
You showed me
When I was young just how to grow
You showed me
Everything that i should know
You showed me
Just how to walk without you hands
'Cause Mom you always were
The perfect fan
God has been so good
Blessing me with a family
Who did all they could
And I've had many years of grace
And it flatters me when I see a smile on your face
I wanna thank you for what you've done
In hopes I can give back to you
And be the perfect son
(Chorus)
You showed me how to love
You showed me how to care
And you showed me that you would always be there
I wanna thank you for that time
And I'm proud to say you're mine
(Chorus)
'Cause Mom you always were, Mom you always were
Mom you always were, you know you always were
'Cause Mom you always were, the perfect fan
I love you Mom
