mom

[Lullaby Intro] (Soft, music box-like melody) Hush now, little one Mom's love has just begun [Childhood Chant] (Playground rhythm, handclaps) Mom-my, Mom-my, strong and bright Chasing monsters in the night Kissing boo-boos, making right Mom-my, Mom-my, hold me tight [Teenage Rebellion] (Punk rock-inspired, fast-paced) I don't need you! I'm grown up! Slammed doors and makeup But when my heart breaks in two I still run back to you [Whispered Realization] (Spoken word over ambient sounds) In every triumph, every tear Your presence lingers, always near The mirror shows your eyes, your smile You've shaped me all the while [Graduation Waltz] (Orchestral swells, 3/4 time) Caps in the air, tassel's turn Life lessons that I've learned In your arms, I stand tall You've given me it all [Adult Appreciation Anthem] (Gospel-inspired, with choir) Oh, Mama! (Oh, Mama!) You're the rock on which I stand Oh, Mama! (Oh, Mama!) Guiding light, holding my hand [Career Woman's Voicemail] (Rhythmic beeps, fast-paced spoken) Hey Mom, it's me, I'm running late Board meeting, can we reschedate? ...Wait, I sound just like you now When did that happen? Wow! [Lullaby Reprise] (Return to soft melody, now sung by an adult voice) Hush now, little one Mom's love has just begun Though roles reverse with time You're always a mom of mine [Circle of Life Finale] (Building to a powerful crescendo) From your arms to the world and back again In your wisdom, I find my zen Every step, every breath, every part Mom, you're the life in my heart [Whispered Outro] (Fading heartbeat percussion) Thank you, Mom... for everything.
