You thought me how to whistle and how to tie my shoes
And how to talk to Jesus in the darkness of my room
You held my hand when I got stitches when one of Tommy Tylor Pitches
Hit my face
One time I stoled from your purse
Then I lied and made it worse
But you loved me anyway
Growing up I remember your amazing grace
I still feel your arms around me now and then
I miss you waving from the front door
I can't drive by there anymore
Cause no one'll ever love me like that again
You sent me all those letters when I went off to school
I should've written you back but I was to busy being cool
Funny how I couldn't wait to get you on the phone to say
Mom I'm in love
You were there whether or not I gave a little or a lot
It was enough
I can still hear you saying you're proud of me
And I remember thinking of you as my friend
I miss you waving from the front door
I can't drive by there anymore
Cause no one'll ever love me like that again
I guess I miss more today cause it's your birthday
And I couldn't bare for you to spend it here alone
Wish I could say this to your face instead of talking to your name
Carved in stone
I can still hear you saying you're proud of me
And I can feel your arms around me now and then
There's a hole in my heart in the shape of your arms
Cause no one'll ever love me
No one'll ever love me like that again
And how to talk to Jesus in the darkness of my room
You held my hand when I got stitches when one of Tommy Tylor Pitches
Hit my face
One time I stoled from your purse
Then I lied and made it worse
But you loved me anyway
Growing up I remember your amazing grace
I still feel your arms around me now and then
I miss you waving from the front door
I can't drive by there anymore
Cause no one'll ever love me like that again
You sent me all those letters when I went off to school
