Such magic in a mother's kiss
And power in her hugs
That can heal the deepest pain
Or dry a flow of tears.
Her arms can make secure
A child filled with fright
And chase away the boogie man
That comes to him at night.
With just one softly spoken word
A child's eyes made bright,
And with the words, I love you,
Everything made right.
Such magic in a mother's kiss
Can't heal the grown-up pain,
When her hugs no longer sooth
Or stop the flow of rain.
If every mom could have one wish
I'm sure that it would be
That the magic in her touch
Could set her children free.
Today is not tomorrow,
So today, I still have power,
With just one kiss, one gentle hug;
Turn weeds into a flower.
