Mariah

I still remember the very first time

I held you close and knew you were mine

My firstborn child, you turned the page

And changed my whole world in a single day

Mariah, I'm grateful just to watch you grow

But there's something that I really need you to know

You've got a heart that understands

The kindest soul and the gentlest hands

I love you more than this world can hold

More than any story ever told

I look at the amazing woman I see

And I'm so proud of the mother you're gonna be

You always feel what others feel

Your empathy is deep and real

You've got a caring and a loving way

That brings a little light to a heavy day

It is a beautiful gift to be your mom

And see the amazing person you've become

You've got a heart that understands

The kindest soul and the gentlest hands

I love you more than this world can hold

More than any story ever told

I look at the amazing woman I see

And I'm so proud of the mother you're gonna be

Now you're stepping into a brand new phase

Getting ready for those baby days

When you hold them tight in your own two arms

They'll be safe and sound from any harm

Those babies are lucky, that's for sure

To have a love so patient, sweet, and pure

'Cause you've got a heart that understands

The kindest soul and the gentlest hands

I love you more than this world can hold

More than any story ever told

Mariah, I look at the woman I see

And I'm so proud of the mother you're gonna be

Yeah, I'm so proud of the mother you're gonna be
