[Verse 1]

What makes you happy? what makes you smile?

And when you smile please, is it for real?

I know you're not one, one to pretend

Even when I was a child you grew up too fast

And had to be brave

Braver than most strong men that I've ever seen

Sing your song, mama

Sing it out loud

I wanna hear your voice

It's the loveliest sound

Little girl, you can come out now

The danger's all gone, you can come out

All that you've held is too much to hold

So let it all go now and you will become gold

Sing your song, mama

Sing it out loud

I wanna hear your voice

It's the loveliest sound

Sing your song, mama

Sing it out loud

Desperately singing

You're beautiful now

Laughter and tears, gracing your face

The music of your strength held up this place

Yet daddy's right here now, you can let go

He's holding it all now and healing your soul

Sing your song, mama

Sing it out loud

I wanna hear your voice

It's the loveliest sound

Sing your song, mama

Sing it out loud

Desperately singing

You're beautiful now

There's something I'm trying to tell you and

I've tried to tell you before and

Each time that I profess it

It just leaves me wanting more and

I think you are beautiful

And I'm proud of you

What I'm trying to say is

I love you

I love you
