Muriel

I still remember the warmth of your smile

Making this heavy life worthwhile

You were the heart and soul of my world

And I know I will always be your baby girl

You held my hand when I learned to walk

Now I look to the sky when I need to talk

Oh, Muriel, my mother, my friend

A love like ours doesn't come to an end

Through the hard times and the bad times too

I promise that I will carry you

Right here in my heart

Just like you carried me

The seasons turn and the years fly past

But the lessons you taught me were built to last

Whenever I'm tired, whenever I'm weak

Your gentle memory is the comfort I seek

You gave me everything I could ever need

Planting a love that grew from a seed

Oh, Muriel, my mother, my friend

A love like ours doesn't come to an end

Through the hard times and the bad times too

I promise that I will carry you

Right here in my heart

Just like you carried me

Your heart and soul poured into my own

A deeper grace I have never known

So I'll walk this road with my head held high

Keeping your light alive in my life

Oh, Muriel, my mother, my friend

A love like ours doesn't come to an end

Through the hard times and the bad times too

I swear that I will carry you

Yes, I will carry you

Just like you carried me
