Every Day My Mother's Voice

Every day the sun comes up
Like the day before
Every day I fill my cup
Stand up straight and walk through the door

Every day my mother's voice
Talks to me
Every day I make my choice
What to do and how to be

Every day I build my life
On her sacrifice
Every day I face my strife
But I know where to go for advice

Many roads I could have gone down
Many, many ways to disappear
Every day I hear the sound
Of her voice right by my ear
So clear, so clear

She taught me to be strong
I guess I got lucky
Now I've got a dance and I've got a song
They can't take that way away from me

Every day
Every day
Every day I hear my mother's voice

Every night the stars come up
Just like the night before
Every night I drain my cup
Lay me down and close the door

(Every day I hear my mother's voice...)
