Momma Knows

My pillow knows my dreams and my shoes know where I've been
My journal knows just about everything that I've ever done or said
This guitar knows my hands, maybe even more than my winter gloves
And God knows me best and listens to my prayers with undenying love
My best friend knows what clothes I like to buy and every guy I've kissed
And my sister can anticipate what I'm about to say next

But my momma knows my tears
She knows my deepest fears
She's seen my heartbreak and my mistakes and the days I want to disappear
She understands my desires
Knows how to make me smile
She's held my hand, and she's shown me the ropes
She's patient when I'm losing hope
No one else could ever even come close
My momma knows

My sister listens to my late night worries and all that I can do
Is thank her for her shoulder when my head gets a little too heavy
And my nail beds know I like to keep them nice and lips know my favorite dessert
My checkbook knows my spending problem and my heart knows how it feels to be hurt
My daddy knows my hopes and dreams and my favorite place to see
His hugs are tighter than anyone's, I hope he knows he's all I want to be

But my momma knows my tears
She knows my deepest fears
She's seen my heartbreak and my mistakes and the days I want to disappear
She understands my desires
Knows how to make me smile
She's held my hand, and she's shown me the ropes
She's patient when I'm losing hope
No one else could ever even come close
My momma knows

She knows my pride, she knows I've lied
She always knows the outcome, and she's always right
And I'm so blessed, of course she knows best
She's taught me everything I'd ever need to know how to do
And I know her too

She's there to open my Band-Aid when I couldn't do it on my own
She listens to every song I write, she always answers her phone
She picks me up from school a little early because I don't like my teachers
She'd come with me to college if she could, she's perfect and I need her

'Cause momma, you know my tears
You know my deepest fears
You've seen my heartbreak and my mistakes and the days I want to disappear
You understand my desires
Never fail to make me smile
You've held my hand, and you've shown me the ropes
You're patient when I'm losing hope
No one else could ever even come close
My momma knows
