Marjorie

Takeout Chinese food and watching TV

Those quiet little moments mean the world to me

The smell of your lasagna filling up the room

While we're cleaning up the house with a dustpan and broom

Simple afternoons, just hanging out with you

Showing me what love is in everything you do

Beautiful Marjorie, patient and strong

You gave me a place where I always belong

I know there were hard years, I know it was tough

But you are a great mother, you are more than enough

I love you so much, and though we may part

You will always be with me, right here in my heart

Walking through the aisles on a weekend shop

We'd talk and we'd laugh till we both had to drop

You handled the struggles with a wonderful grace

And kept a warm smile on our family's face

Whenever I stumbled, you guided my way

I cherish the memories of every single day

Beautiful Marjorie, patient and strong

You gave me a place where I always belong

I know there were hard years, I know it was tough

But you are a great mother, you are more than enough

I love you so much, and though we may part

You will always be with me, right here in my heart

I wish we had more time to just sit and share

I'll miss you so deeply when you are not there

But the light that you gave me will never depart

You built up my courage and shaped who I are

I want you to know, as I'm holding your hand

You're the most wonderful mother, I hope you understand

Beautiful Marjorie, patient and strong

You gave me a place where I always belong

I know there were hard years, I know it was tough

But you are a great mother, you are more than enough

I love you so much, and though we may part

You will always be with me, right here in my heart
