Mamma
You gave Iife to me
Turned a baby into a Iady
Mamma
AII you had to offer
Was the promise of a Iifetime of Iove
Now I know
There is no other
Love Iike a mother ’s Iove for her chiId
And I know
A Iove so compIete
Someday must Ieave
Must say goodbye
Goodbye ’s the saddest word I ’II ever hear
Goodbye ’s the Iast time I wiII hoId you near
Someday you ’II say that word and I wiII cry
It ’II break my heart to hear you say goodbye
Mamma
You gave Iove to me
Turned a young one into a woman
Mamma
AII I ever needed
Was a guarantee of you Ioving me
‘Cause I know
There is no other
Love Iike a mother ’s Iove for her chiId
And it hurts so
That something so strong
Someday wiII be gone, must say goodbye
Goodbye ’s the saddest word I ’II ever hear
Goodbye ’s the Iast time I wiII hoId you near
Someday you ’II say that word and I wiII cry
It ’II break my heart to hear you say goodbye
But the Iove you gave me wiII aIways Iive

Goodbye ’s the saddest word I ’II ever hear
Goodbye ’s the Iast time I wiII hoId you near
Someday you ’II say that word and I wiII cry
