(Verse 1)
Kim with auburn hair and hazel green eyes that shine,
An amazing smile that greets the dawn — forever one of mine.
Smart and bubbly, heart of gold, she never gives up the fight,
Always been my steady rock, my lantern in the night.
She made me a mommy, my baby girl beneath the porch-light glow,
Small hands, big dreams, and Sunday songs that taught my heart to grow.
(Chorus)
They're my three reasons for living — Kim, Nicole, Melissa, my whole sky,
They're my compass and my courage when the nights come rolling by.
Forever eighteen months — Nicole, my lullaby,
With the porch light on, we'll keep the homefires bright, and I'll love you to the moon and back.
(Verse 2)
Nicole, my angel, forever eighteen months bright,
Baby blue eyes and dirty-blonde hair, a soft and shining light.
Gone too soon — missing you, I wish I had one more day,
Your laughter in the kitchen, the little things you’d say.
Forever eighteen months, you stay a tender, glowing star,
I feel you in the wildflowers and in every song on the car.
(Chorus)
They're my three reasons for living — Kim, Nicole, Melissa, my whole sky,
They're my compass and my courage when the nights come rolling by.
Forever eighteen months — Nicole, my lullaby,
With the porch light on, we'll keep the homefires bright, and I'll love you to the moon and back.
(Verse 3)
Melissa, my youngest, with dirty-blonde hair and baby blue eyes,
Strong-willed, loyal, restorer of hope when weary days arise.
She’s steady as the county road and fierce as summer rain,
My angel face, my last small miracle, she heals me again.
Melissa wasn’t my single accomplishment — all three are my proudest part,
Together they’re the story written on the map of my heart.
(Bridge — Spanish)
Siempre en mi corazón, gracias por dejarme ser mamá,
Tres estrellas que me guían, juntas donde quiera que vaya.
(Chorus - Variation)
They're my three reasons for living — Kim, Nicole, Melissa, my whole sky,
Kim’s brave laugh, Nicole’s forever light, Melissa’s hands to steady mine.
Forever eighteen months — Nicole, my lullaby,
We’ll keep the porch light on, we’ll keep the prayers in the night, and I’ll love you to the moon and back.
(Outro)
No matter when it’s my time to go, remember what I say:
I will always, forever be proud of you — come what may.
All three my main accomplishments, my reasons, my guiding track,
Love always, forever and a day — Mom.
