Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I see the light's gone from your eyes,
You sit in silence, asking why.
Pictures on the wall, her laughter in the air,
But nothing fills the space of her not being there.

You hold her sweater like a prayer,
Each thread a memory you wear.
But Mama, you ain't gotta walk alone,
I’m still right here — we still call this home.

[Chorus]
Mama, don’t cry, I feel her too,
Every tear you shed, I’m shedding with you.
She’s in the breeze, she’s in the sky,
In every sunset saying goodbye.
But it’s not the end, just a different light —
So Mama, don’t cry tonight.

[Verse 2]
You blame yourself for what went wrong,
But Mama, you’ve always been so strong.
She knew your love in every breath,
She carried it with her, even in death.

I see her smile when you speak her name,
I swear she’d hate to see you in this pain.
She’s whispering through me, I swear it’s true,
Saying “Mama, smile — I’m still part of you.”

[Chorus]
Mama, don’t cry, I feel her too,
Every tear you shed, I’m shedding with you.
She’s in the rain, she’s in the fire,
The quiet moments, the gospel choir.
It’s not goodbye, just a shift in sight —
So Mama, don’t cry tonight.

[Bridge]
We’ll plant her favorite flowers come the spring,
Sing her song, let the church bells ring.
She left too soon, but love remains —
In every heartbeat, in every name.

[Final Chorus]
Mama, don’t cry, we’ll make it through,
She’s watching now, she’s proud of you.
She’s in your strength, in every fight,
In every candle we set alight.
It’s not the end, just another flight —
So Mama…
Mama, don’t cry tonight.
