She believes you are special
Wants the best for you each day
And she tells you when you’re hurting
Everything will be okay

Send a child into this big world
With the tools to make them strong
Then she stands aside and hopes
That they’ll be ready for whatever comes along

She has blessed you with a promise
That your dreams can all come true
She says never let the moment ever be too great for you

Send a child into this big world
When there’s still so much to say
But she’s taught them from a knowing heart
To live in love ‘cause that’s a mother’s way

At every pass of the carousel
You wave and she waves back
She’s there for you at every turn
‘Cause that’s a mother’s way
Her love will always stay, that’s a mother’s way

She tells you to be careful as she gives you wings to fly
And reminds you to be grounded
When you’re reaching for the sky

At every pass of the carousel
You wave and she waves back
She’s there for you at every turn
‘Cause that’s a mother’s way
Her love will always stay, that’s a mother’s way
