Nightfire
Aspiring Idiot
I was running out of ideas for mothers day and in a rush of panic I wrote a quick song, wish I coulda put more time into it. I know its not very smooth and clever but push came to shove, recording it as we speak. My bro helped me with this a little. Gonna put the cd in her car player so when she drives to church tomorow she hears this

Verse 1
20 years have come and past
Who’da thought that you would last?
But you’re standing here today,
With a smile that’s lit our way
We want to thank you mom for that
Verse 2
You held our hands throughout these years
Your warm hands wiped away our tears
A big heart helped us learn to love
And helped us follow God above
We want to thank you mom for that
Chorus
We wanna thank you Mom for being who you are
Ever loving, never just watching from afar
And when we fell you were right there to pick us up
We wanna thank you Mom for that
Bridge
Want you to know how much we love you
Even though we always argue
We care bout you a whole lot too
This song is written just to show you
How much your care has really shone through
Hope you’re proud of both us two
Chorus

It reminds me of the song Valentine's Day by Steve Earle. If you don't have it on your ipod then you should. It will get you out of trouble with your significant other when you forget Valentine's Day. (Sad to say that I hae used it a couple of times in the last 35 years
.)
She loved it! She had me and my bro sing it to her 3 times today haha.
