Hey! I'm back after 5 years. I'm doing a Mother's Day Gig next month (on Mother's Day) and want to do "Dearest Mother of Mine", but I can't find complete lyrics or music for it.


The words as I remember them are "You are a wonderful Mother, Dearest Mother of Mine."

Anybody have this? I couldn't find it in the Database.

Lyrics in several places if this is it, eg: That Wonderful Mother Of Mine". A midi plays when you open the page.

I am posting this because the lyrics differ slightly from those linked to by Mike.

Eddy Arnold That Wonderful Mother of Mine Lyrics
THAT WONDERFUL MOTHER OF MINE
Writers Walter Goodwin, Clyde Hager

The moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of that wonderful mother of mine.
The birds never sing but a message they bring
Of that wonderful mother of mine.
Just to bring back the time, that was so sweet to me,
Just to bring back the days, when I sat on her knee.

You are a wonderful mother,
Dear old Mother of mine.
You'll hold a spot down deep in my heart,
'Till the stars no longer shine.
Your soul shall live on forever,
On through the fields of time.

For there'll never be another to me,
Like that wonderful Mother of mine
I pray ev'ry night to our Father above,
For that wonderful mother of mine.
I ask Him to keep her as long as He can
That wonderful mother of mine.

There are treasures on earth,
that made life seem worthwhile,
But there's none can compare to my mother's smile.
You are a wonderful mother,
Dear old Mother of mine.

You'll hold a spot down deep in my heart,
'Till the stars no longer shine.
Your soul shall live on forever,
On through the fields of time.
For there'll never be another to me,
Like that wonderful Mother of mine

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. I suspected that Mudcat was the place where I could get this. I really did try doing this through my usual search engines, and was surprised I coudn't find anything. This helps so much.
Thanks again.

Rather shamefully stolen from Edgar Allen Poe, no?

And I know a couple of GREAT dear mom songs in Hungarian..
