The midnight hour the world's asleep
But here she is her watch to keep
Tiny hands that need her near
Through every cry through every tear
The nights are long the days are hard
But she holds on though she's scarred
With tired eyes and heavy arms
She shelters him keeps him from harm
Through sleepless nights and endless days
She gives her heart in quiet ways
No rest no break but still she stays
Her love like fire won't fade away
When the world grows cold and steep
Her love's the promise she will keep
Through the pain through the deep
A mother's love a love that never sleeps
There's aching in her bones tonight
But in his smile she finds the light
She rocks him slow hums soft and sweet
Though she's worn down she won't retreat
Each tear that falls she wipes away
With whispered words that softly say
"I'm here my child through storm and rain
My love will always ease your pain"
Through sleepless nights and endless days
She gives her heart in quiet ways
No rest no break but still she stays
Her love like fire won't fade away
When the world grows cold and steep
Her love's the promise she will keep
Through the pain through the deep
A mother's love a love that never sleeps
She bears the weight of all the years
The silent battles hidden fears
But every ache she would relive
For all she has she'll always give
Through sleepless nights and endless days
She gives her heart in quiet ways
No rest no break but still she stays
Her love like fire won't fade away
When the world grows cold and steep
Her love's the promise she will keep
Through the pain through the deep
A mother's love a love that never sleeps
So even when the nights are long
Her love will always make her strong
In every tear in every fight
A mother's love burns through the night
