歌词
[instrumental intro]
(Verse 1)
From the moment I took my first breath,
You were there, guiding me through life's quest.
More than just the one who gave me birth,
You were the anchor through every storm's worst.
(Pre-Chorus)
You held my hand through my first steps,
Taught me to speak when I had no words left.
From the first threads of clothes I wore,
To the first jobs, all my chores.
(Chorus)
You were there, my rock, my guide,
From your love, I'd never hide.
Every hurdle, every mountain I'd climb.
Thank you for helping me through all my first times.
[instrumental]
(Chorus)
You were there, my rock, my guide,
From your love, I'd never hide.
Every hurdle, every mountain I'd climb.
Thank you for helping me through all my first times.
[instrumental]
And on those days when the sun didn't shine,
Thank you for helping me through all my first times.
(Verse 2)
From the first prayers whispered in the night,
To my first victories, gleaming so bright.
You were there every time I took a fall,
You'd lift me up, never let me crawl.
(Pre-Chorus)
You cheered me on whenever I'd win,
Soften the blow when I couldn't begin.
When that first girl tore my heart apart,
You stitched the pieces back and mended my heart.
(Chorus)
You were there, my rock, my guide,
From your love, I'd never hide.
Every hurdle, every mountain I'd climb.
And on those days when the sun didn't shine,
Thank you for helping me through all my first times.
You stitched the pieces back, to mend my damaged heart.
(Chorus)
You were there, my rock, my guide,
From your love, I'd never hide.
Every hurdle, every mountain I'd climb.
And on those days when the sun didn't shine,
Thank you for helping me through all my first times.
(Bridge)
To my mom, the backbone of my life,
seeing me through my firsts, and trying to be nice
remember me at the fast-food place,
and driving 'round in the Toyota you gave.
Whenever I was sick, you were always near,
You wouldn't stop your love and care.
And when Jenya and I would finally wed,
Your eyes filled with pride, as our vows were said.
Now you as a grandma, your love still shines bright,
Guiding not just me, but my own little light.
So here's to you, Mom, for all that you do,
This country song is to show a little love back from me to you.
(Chorus)
You were there, my rock, my guide,
From your love, I'd never hide.
Every hurdle, every mountain I'd climb.
And on those days when the sun didn't shine,
Thank you for helping me through all my first times.
...all my first times.
