"My Mother Must Have Been A Girl Like You" lyrics

You're so kind and understanding about everything I do
I could never find another girl as true
Though I never knew my mother, they say she was such a queen
I know my mother must have been a girl like you

You listen to my troubles and not once do you complain
And in spite of all my faults, you love me just the same
I don't see how you do it, but I'm so glad you do
I know my mother must have been a girl like you

I don't know what I'd do without you, you're life itself to me
When I am lost, you always see me through
Like a guiding star from heaven, you keep watching over me
I know my mother must have been a girl like you

I know that you can see in me what others never know
That's why I've got to say again, my dear, I love you so
I know that God in heaven has a special place for you
I know my mother must have been a girl like you
