Riley Roth - When God Made You My Mother Lyrics

[Verse 1]I bet you could've used a minuteJust a little time aloneBut you let me be your little shadowFollowing wherever you would goThen I got a little olderAnd you gave me space to growI don't ever seem to tell you enough butI want you to know[Chorus]When God made you my motherHe knew who I'd needWhen he picked you from the othersHe could already seeThat you would be my heroAnd everything I want to beWhen God madе you my motherHe was being good to mе[Verse 2]I come to you with all my secretsAnd you never, ever judgeAnd when I'm falling in my weaknessYou give me strength to stand back upNo amount of miles could separate usNo place where I don't feel your loveYou say I'm the gift that heaven gave youBut I'm the lucky one[Chorus]When God made you my motherHe knew who I'd needWhen he picked you from the othersHe could already seeThat you would be my heroAnd everything I want to beWhen God made you my motherHe was being good to me[Outro]If I'm ever a motherI wanna be like youIf he picks me from the othersI'm going to try to fill your shoes'Cause mama you're my heroAnd everything I want to beWhen God made you my motherHe was being good to meYeah, he was being good to me
