Verse 1
You and I have been alone together
Longer than we can remember it's been just us two
You and I get along pretty well
Who could ever foretell what we have gone through
Verse 2
So when you ask where your mom is
I don't know what to say
Heaven's no answer to someone's pain
So I look in your eyes and say right out loud
I know where your mommy is now
Chorus
She's in the back of your mind, the bottom of your heart
She holds you at night softly in her sweet arms
She's in the back of your mind, the bottom of your heart
And she'll always be part of you
Verse 3
You and I tend to lean on each other
We're never far from one another in whatever we do
You and I have a chip on our shoulder
Pretend we're good strong foot soldiers in our army of two
Verse 4
But when you say you miss your mom
I don't feel so brave
My mumbled replies can't ever explain
So I look in your eyes and wipe the tears
I say I know your mommy is here
Chorus 2x
Tag
And she'll always be part of you
