Make it Okay  by: ME November 16, 2005

Momma had 3 children so she had to heal alot of hurts
Skinned knees, bike wrecks, cuts, bruises, and burns
We'd come to her in tears and she would just smile
She'd hug us and say, "It'll be okay in a little while"

Mommy would kiss all of our pain away
Wipe the tears from out eyes, make it a better day
She would hold us tight until everything was alright
She'd make it okay

Momma's life was filled with pain
She'd drink to forget, thought that wasn't the way
No more smile she'd show, only tears
Not even our love would make her put down that beer

We wished we could kiss all of her pain away
Wipe the tears from her eyes, make it a better day
We wanted to hold her tight until everything was alright
We couldn't make it okay

Momma died one night in May, now her pain is gone
We miss her so much and that hurt continues on and on

Mommy can you kiss all of our pain away?
Wipe the tears from out eyes, make it a better day?
Can you hold us tight until everything is alright?
Can you make it okay?
