[Intro]
Soft light through the window, a quiet time to think
Peter on the edge of the day, letting memories sink
[Verse 1]
The clock ticks slow on the kitchen wall, a simple, everyday scene
He whispers thanks for the love he learned from the hands that raised him clean
He smiles at small victories, at meals and laughter shared
But in the corner of his heart, he keeps a quiet doorway stared
[Pre-Chorus]
If I could call her name, I’d tell her I’m alright
But I carry her in the tremble of the evening light
[Chorus]
I love you, I miss you, mother, more than words can say
Your voice stays in the morning rain, your smile in the chest of day
Though you’re far beyond the waking world, your memory shines so bright
In every ordinary moment, you guide me to the right
[Verse 2]
Today he kept her favorite mug, he brewed tea just the same
A small ritual to feel her there, to soothe the ache of the name
He walks through rooms where echoes bloom of lullabies and care
And pretends she’s listening close, that she’s whispering he’s there
[Pre-Chorus]
If I could call her name, I’d tell her I’m alright
But I carry her in the tremble of the evening light
[Chorus]
I love you, I miss you, mother, more than words can say
Your voice stays in the morning rain, your smile in the chest of day
Though you’re far beyond the waking world, your memory shines so bright
In every ordinary moment, you guide me to the right
[Bridge]
The day will fold its edges smooth, and night will softly fall
He’ll carry the love she gave him, like a beacon through it all
[Chorus]
I love you, I miss you, mother, more than words can say
Your voice stays in the morning rain, your smile in the chest of day
Though you’re far beyond the waking world, your memory shines so bright
In every ordinary moment, you guide me to the right
[Outro]
So here’s to you, to kinder days and to the love that never ends
Peter keeps your warmth inside his heart, where it forever mends
