You taught me everything and everything you've given me

I always keep it inside

You're the driving force in my life, yeah

There isn't anything Or anyone I can be

And it just wouldn't feel right

If I didn't have you by my side

You were there for me to love and care for me

When skies were gray

Whenever I was down, you were always there to comfort me

And no one else can be

What you have been to me you will always be

You will always be the girl, in my life for all times

Mama, Mama you know I love you

Oh you know I love you

Mama, Mama you're the queen of my heart

Your love is like tears from the stars (oh yes it is)

Mama I just want you to know lovin' you is like food to my soul

Yes it is, yes it is, oh

You're always there for me

Have always been around for me even when I was bad

You showed me right from my wrong

Yes you did

And you took up for me

When everyone was downin' me

You always did understand

You gave me strength to go on

There was so many times, looking back when I was so afraid

And then you come to me and say to me

I can face anything

And no one else can do

What you have done for me

You'll always be, you will always be

The girl in my life, ooh oh
