Unless You Are A Mother

You will never know what it’s like
To look at a newborn baby’s face
And know inside she is yours
Unless you’re a mother

To nurse a baby to sleep and sit still
Cause that will make everything right in the world
You won’t know how it is
Unless you’re a mother

To be proud of your child’s first dance
Of your child’s first poem
Of your child’s first crush
Unless you’re a mother

How you are ready to take on
All the evil people in the world
Specially the other child who fought with your child
Unless you’re a mother

To weep with quiet tears
When your child takes the wrong road
You will never know the deepness of this sorrow
Unless you’re a mother

To fill the void
When your child goes away
To dance in the bigger world
No one worries like a mother

And you will not know what it’s like
When your child becomes a mother
And thanks you for showing her how
Unless you are a mother
