It takes a lot to know what is love
it's not the big things, but the little things
that can mean enough
a lot of prayers to get me through
and there is never a day that passes by
i don't think of you
you were always there for me
pushing me and guiding me
always to succeed
Chorus
you showed me
when i was young just how to grow
you showed me
everything that i should know
you showed me
just how to walk without your hands
'cause mom you always were
the perfect fan
God has been so good
blessing me with a family
who did all they could
and i've had many years of grace
and it flatters me when i see a smile on your face
i wanna thank you for what you've done
in hopes i can give back to you
and be the perfect son
Chorus - repeat
You showed me how to love
you showed me how to care
and you showed me that you would
always be there
i wanna thank you for that time
and i'm proud to say you're mine
Chorus - repeat
'cause mom you always were,
mom you always were
mom you always were,
you know you always were'
cause mom you always were... the perfect fan
I love you mom
