All I need


I could not live without you, the best mother in the world

I could not live without you, whether in my home or in my heart

I could not live without you,  your words of wisdom, not always so kind

I could not live without you, you're always on my mind

I could not live without you, your smile always shines

I could not live without you, you even make the worst days fine

I could not live without you, your moral and spiritual support

I could not live without you, your words didn't ever fall short

I could not live without you, your love, no one will ever match

I could not live without you, for you a bullet I would catch

I could not live without you, your spot in my heart I could never fill

But someday I'll have to, and I don't know how I will
