Story Behind The Song

This song was written specifically for a friend''s wedding, and was of course based on my own relationship with my mother, who is the best!

Song Description

This song embodies all the love a daughter feels for her mother, and how much the mother shaped her life by just standing by her and supporting her.

Lyrics

VERSE: To my mother, on my wedding day
Standing here before you in this gown you made
And here in every stitch and in every seam
Is your love and dedication to your family

And I?m sure you see the child you bore in the woman
I?ve become
So much time has passed that?s true
But you taught me faith and that faith has kept me
strong
And you believed in me like I believed in you

CHORUS: And there were times when I was troubled
And there were times I lost my way
But you were a light shining bright in front of me
I looked into your eyes and I believe

VERSE: To my mother on my wedding day
Standing here before you with so much to say
Through all the laughter and through all the tears
You know I wouldn?t change a moment of my younger
years

And I see that tears are in your eyes as I?m walking
down the aisle
Bride and groom now husband and wife
And though I?ll have a new home and a brand new
name
Well you know you?ll always be a part of my life

CHORUS

BRIDGE Because of you, I know what I can become
Because of you I know just who I am
Because of you I know that I am never alone
?Cause you?re more than just my family, you?re my
friend


CHORUS: And there were times when I was troubled
And there were times I lost my way
But you were a light shining bright in front of me
I looked into your eyes
Looked into your eyes
And I believed in me.
