A MOTHER'S LOVE
(Cliff Owens)

Johnnie Ray & Timi Yuro - 1961


JOHNNIE:
I have seen a rainbow
Circle across the sky

TIMI:
I have stood on a mountain
And watched an eagle fly

JOHNNIE:
I have seen trees in a meadow
Shelter a morning dove

TIMI:
But I haven't seen anything
To match the wonder of a mother's love

JOHNNIE:
I have seen a sunset
More beautiful than gold

TIMI:
I have stood by a rosebed
And watched the leaves unfold

JOHNNIE:
I have seen so many wonders
And blessings from above

BOTH
But I haven't seen anything
To match the wonder of a mother's love
No I haven't seen anything
To match the wonder of a mother's love
