Donell Jones - A Mother`s Love

[Intro:]

Some people say they don`t believe in love at first sight

But I must admit the first time I laid eyes on my mother I fell in love

This dedicated to you, mama

I love you!



[Verse 1:]

Before I entered the world I was a spirit

So God gave me a home, yea

He knew that you could give me love unconditional

So inside of you I began to grow

Our connection was so amazing

Your belly was filled with my love

I gave a little kick when I heard your voice

Go mama, go mama, go mama

I know how much you felt the pain

Cause I wasn`t ready

For you to meet your baby boy



[Chorus:]

You`re the first girl that I loved

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

Nothing can come between us

There`s nothing that can replace the love of a mother

I know in you I can always trust

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

We only get one mother

There`s nothing that can replace a mother`s love, a mother`s love



[Verse 2:]

My dream these years you were there to look it proudly

You discipline turned me into a man

I watched you lie your head and now I`m gone

Every morning, yea

Never trippin, just providing what I needed
I know your life ain`t pretty easy

We struggled but we made it with love

We struggled but you didn`t let it show

Go mama, go mama, go mama

And there`s no one that can take your place

You`ve been every day

For that I got to let you know



[Chorus:]

You`re the first girl that I loved

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

Nothing can come between us

There`s nothing that can replace the love of a mother

I know in you I can always trust

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

We only get one mother

There`s nothing that can replace a mother`s love, a mother`s love



[Interlude:]

Yo this goes out to all the mothers in the world

The single mothers, the married mothers

Especially my mother

Mama you know I love you from the bottom of my heart

To the depths of my soul

You`ll always be the first woman... I ever fell in love with



[Chorus:]

You`re the first girl that I loved

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

There`s nothing that can replace the love of a mother

I know in you I can always trust

There`s nothing that can replace the love of a mother (mama do you hear me?)

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

There`s nothing that can replace a mother`s love, a mother`s love

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother
