~ You Loved Me Enough ~
 
I bless my mother who gave me life
she is a wonder to behold,
God gave her special love
kindness tenfold.
Mom how can I thank you
for being so strong,
You loved me enough to let me go
In my eyes you did no wrong.
I was given to a mother
who could have none of her own.
The day before thanksgiving
she took me to her home,
I was a beautiful child
I was my mother's very soul,
I loved both of them
I will never let go.
 
Now, my adopted Mom says to me
I am the one who sings you to sleep
in my heart I will always have peace,
I am the one who dries your tears
in my arms I hold you without fear.
I am the one who helps you learn
in my eyes you do no wrong,
You are good, kind, loving to me
in time I will set you free.
I am the one who gave you a heart
I did not give you birth
yet I played a part,
I am the one
you call Mom.
I helped you feel that you belonged
you may not be my blood,
but you are my very soul.
I am the one who kisses you each night
with a prayer that you will be all right.
