Mary Lou

I look back on the days of my youth

Walking the car shows, learning the truth

Of what a steady and honest love means

You were the anchor behind all my dreams

Aunt Mary Lou, you answered the call

Standing right there to catch every fall

You are my rock, you are my world

A shelter of peace when the heavy winds swirl

More than an aunt, you're a mother to me

Showing me what unconditional means

I could never repay all the love that you pour

From the bottom of my heart, I love you and more

Now we sit at the table to craft

Sharing our stories and sharing a laugh

You speak with an honest and comforting light

Guiding my spirit and making things right

Just spending time, just talking it through

I see the beauty of heaven in you

You are my rock, you are my world

A shelter of peace when the heavy winds swirl

More than an aunt, you're a mother to me

Showing me what unconditional means

I could never repay all the love that you pour

From the bottom of my heart, I love you and more

For every sacrifice, every prayer

For every moment you proved you were there

I lift up my voice just to honor your name

Because of your heart, I am never the same

I could never repay what you've freely supplied

But I'll carry your love as my light and my guide

You are my rock, you are my world

A shelter of peace when the heavy winds swirl

More than an aunt, you're a mother to me

Showing me what unconditional means

I could never repay all the love that you pour

From the bottom of my heart, Mary Lou, you're adored
