ANTOINETTE

I remember when I moved into your space

You wrapped me right up in a warm embrace

A passionate soul with a loving heart

You made me feel safe right from the start

We’d have our little mom and daughter days

Getting our nails and our toes done, hiding away

Then back to the house for a movie night

Sitting beside you, the world felt right

Antoinette, you’re the one who showed me

What a mother’s love is supposed to be

You protect your own through the joy and pain

And I promise you I will do the same

I love you like my real mom, it's true

Antoinette, I will always be there for you

My favorite times aren't the fancy things

It's the simple joy that your spirit brings

I’d pull out my phone, open up Snapchat

Taking silly pictures, just laughing at that

We would laugh so hard we could barely breathe

Those are the memories I'll never leave

You’re so emotional, you care so deep

These are the moments my soul will keep

Antoinette, you’re the one who showed me

What a mother’s love is supposed to be

You protect your own through the joy and pain

And I promise you I will do the same

I love you like my real mom, it's true

Antoinette, I will always be there for you

No matter what happens, I’m by your side

I’ll be your guard, with my arms open wide

I will never let anyone hurt you now

I’ll take care of you, let me make this vow

Remember me always, whatever we go through

'Cause I'll never, ever forget about you

Antoinette, you’re the one who showed me

What a mother’s love is supposed to be

You protect your own through the joy and pain

And I promise you I will do the same

I love you like my real mom, it's true

Antoinette, I will always be there for you

I love you, Mom
