Goodbye's (The Saddest Word) Lyrics
Mamma
You gave life to me
Turned a baby into a lady
Mamma
All you had to offer
Was the promise of a lifetime of love
Now I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child
And I know
A love so complete
Someday must leave
Must say goodbye
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
Mamma
You gave love to me
Turned a young one into a woman
Mamma
All I ever needed
Was a guarantee of you loving me
'Cause I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child
And it hurts so
That something so strong
Someday will be gone, must say goodbye
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
But the love you gave me will always live
You'll always be there every time I call
You offered me the greatest love of all
You take my weakness and you make me strong
And I will always love you 'til forever comes
And when you need me
I'll be there for you all the way
I'll be there all life through
I'll be there this I guarantee
Mamma, I'll be
I'll be there through the darkest nights
I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight
I'll be your shelter through the raging storm
And I will love you 'till forever comes
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
'Till we meet again...
Until then...
Goodbye.
Why has no one commented on this song? Its the sweetest song. The first time I heard on the radio, I just couldn't stop crying. It hurts so much to lose the people you love. No one wants to have to say Goodbye. This song really touched me.
love this song so much i cry everytime i hear it.
I had to sign up for this site just to comment on this sone... some asked why no one commented on this song.. i thought the same thing. The first time iheard this song was right after my mother passed away... it was like this song was meant for her... i had chills and was speechless.... it is a beautiful song and everytime i hear it i feel like my mom is right there with me.
Such an amazing song.

It's about how mothers have to let go of their children as they grow up.
