Goodbye's (the Saddest Word) Lyrics

Mamma You gave life to me Turned a baby into a lady
Mamma All you had to offer Was the promise of a lifetime of love Now I know There is no other Love like a mother's love for her child
And I know A love so complete Someday must leave Must say goodbye
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near Someday you'll say that word and I will cry It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
Mamma You gave love to me Turned a young one into a woman
Mamma All I ever needed Was a guarantee of you loving me 'Cause I know There is no other Love like a mother's love for her child
And it hurts so That something so strong Someday will be gone, must say goodbye
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near Someday you'll say that word and I will cry It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
But the love you gave me will always live You'll always be there every time I fall You are to me the greatest love of all You take my weakness and you make me strong And I will always love you 'til forever comes
And when you need me I'll be there for you always I'll be there your whole life through I'll be there this I promise you, Mamma
Mamma, I'll be I'll be your beacon through the darkest nights I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight I'll be your shelter through the raging storm And I will love you 'till forever comes
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near Someday you'll say that word and I will cry It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
'Till we meet again Until then Goodbye
