I got my eyes, my heart
I got my looks, my smarts
I got my home, my cards from you
I got my wit, my charm
Protection from the harm
I got my love from someone new
But it all comes back to
My mom and her heart of gold
She gave me warmth in a world of cold Nearly 400,000 babies a day
And somehow I'm the one that gets to say
That I'm her son, she's my mom
She keeps me safe, yeah, she's the one
Who keeps my mind at bay
She's the reason that I'm waking up every day
And mom, I know you're listening
So let me tell you real quick
That you're the best, you see
You're the reason that
I'm happy being me
My mom and her heart of gold
She gave me warmth in a world of cold Nearly 400,000 babies a day
And somehow I'm the one that gets to say That I'm her son, she's my mom
She keeps me safe, yeah, she's the one Who keeps my mind at bay
You're the reason that I'm waking up every day
