Still Waiting For Your Call — DaddyLove

Intro

Verse 1

You picked a school across the street from where you worked
So through the window you could watch me play
You packed my lunch every Monday before the week began
And I never knew how much you gave away

Pre-Chorus

Even when the miles were long
Even when the years moved on
I would walk to find your door

Chorus

'Cause you were more than a mother
You were the bravest soul I'd ever known
You were the kindest heart, the warmest light
The best in this universe, in any time
Mama, I'm still waiting for your call

Verse 2

You never missed a birthday, remembered every name
Drove across the town just to see us shine
Your kitchen was a heaven, every plate a labor of love
And your laughter was the sweetest kind

Pre-Chorus

Even now when I'm alone
I look down and check my phone
Hoping it will ring once more

Chorus

'Cause you were more than a mother
You were the bravest soul I'd ever known
You were the kindest heart, the warmest light
The best in this universe, in any time
Mama, I'm still waiting for your call

Bridge

Four years gone but you're still here in everything I do
Every time I show up, every time I care
The empathy I carry, I carry it from you
You taught me how to love by being there

Verse 3

You fought it like a soldier, elegant and strong
Beauty that the sickness couldn't dim
Hours on the telephone, talking about everything
A love I'm still holding within

Final Chorus

You were more than a mother
You were the bravest soul I've ever known
You were the kindest heart, the warmest light
The best in this universe, in any time
Mama, happy Mother's Day
I'm still waiting for your call

Outro

The best mother in the universe
The best mother in the universe
And forever you will be
