My Second Mom

Verse 1 Funny how life brings people together, And somehow they become your home. You started as my mother-in-law... But somewhere along the way, You simply became... Mom. Verse 2 Ten years living side by side, Coffee cups and front porch talks. Running errands, sharing laughs, Never needing clocks. You were there for every birthday, Every holiday and every tear. Not because you had to be... Because your heart was always near. Pre-Chorus People say you're lucky If you find one best friend... I found mine... And got to call her Mom. Chorus I miss the everyday moments. The little things we used to do. The quick knock on the back door. The "Come on over" out of the blue. I miss hearing your laughter Fill another ordinary day. I'd give anything for one more afternoon To hear you say my name. You may not have given me life... But you gave my life so much love. You'll always be... My second mom. Verse 3 You loved our boys like only grandmas can. Completely... without condition. You celebrated every milestone, Every game, every tradition. The house feels different now. The neighborhood feels strange. Some places stay exactly the same... Even after everything has changed. Bridge Thank you for loving me Like I was always your own. Thank you for making sure I never felt alone. If I become even half the woman You showed me how to be... I'll know I got it right. Final Chorus I still look toward your house sometimes. Old habits never fade. Then I remember Heaven Needed an angel that day. The porch light may be gone... But your love still lights my way. You'll never stop being The woman I called Mom. Outro Some people become family Because they have to... You became mine... Because you chose to.
