Mother holds her head up high
Conquering the great divide
A thousand miles beyond the grave
With shadows in the blind

Mother knows what must be done
Fighting for her precious ones
There can be no compromise
No matter what may come

When all hope is left to die
A mother's love survives

Mother never bows to fate
Grieving for what can't be changed
We discover in due time
How much we're meant to take

When all hope is left to die
A mother's love survives

See how we run
Trying to escape the damage done
Don't know what's to come
This bond will never break, we'll overcome

Mother, ​you may never know
The debt I owe to you alone
I hope I can repay in time
For never letting go

When all hope was left to die
Your love for me survived
Your love for me survived
Your love for me survived
