Lyrics:

[English]

It takes a lot to know what is love

...

It's not the big things but the little things

That can mean enough

A lot of prayers to get me through

And there is never a day that passes by

I don't think of you

You were always there for me

Pushing me and guiding me

...

Always to succeed

You showed me

When I was young just how to grow

You showed me

Everything that I should know

You showed me

Just how to walk without your hands

'Cause mom, you always were the perfect fan

...

God has been so good

...

Blessing me with a family

Who did all they could

And I've had many years of grace

...

And it flatters me when I see a smile on your face

I wanna thank you for what you've done

In hopes I can give back to you

And be the perfect son

You showed me

When I was young just how to grow

You showed me

Everything that I should know

You showed me

Just how to walk without your hands

'Cause mom, you always were the perfect fan

(You showed me how to love)

You showed me how to love

(You showed me how to care)

You showed me how to care

(You showed me that you would) Always be there

I wanna thank you for that time

And I'm proud to say you're mine

You showed me, you showed me

When I was young just how to grow

You showed me

Everything that I should know

You showed me

Just how to walk without your hands

'Cause mom you always were the perfect fan

'Cause mom, you always were

...

Mom, you always were

Mom, you always were

You know you always were

'Cause mom, you always were

The perfect fan

...

I love you, mom

...
