Mamma 
You gave life to me 
Turned a baby into a lady 
 
Mamma 
All you had to offer 
Was the promise of a lifetime of love 
 
Now I know 
There is no other 
Love like a mother's love for her child 
 
And I know 
A love so complete 
Someday must leave 
Must say goodbye 
 
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear 
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near 
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry 
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye 
 
Mamma 
You gave love to me 
Turned a young one into a woman 
 
Mamma 
All I ever needed 
Was a guarantee of you loving me 
 
'Cause I know 
There is no other 
Love like a mother's love for her child 
 
And it hurts so 
That something so strong 
Someday will be gone, must say goodbye 
 
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear 
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near 
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry 
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye 
 
But the love you gave me will always live 
You'll always be there every time I fall 
You offered me the greatest love of all 
You take my weakness and you make me strong 
And I will always love you 'til forever comes 
 
And when you need me 
I'll be there for you always 
I'll be there your whole life through 
I'll be there this I promise you, Mamma 
 
Mamma, I'll be 
I'll be there through the darkest nights 
I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight 
I'll be your shelter through the raging storm 
And I will love you 'till forever comes 
 
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear 
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near 
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry 
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye 
 
'Till we meet again... 
Until then... 
Goodbye
