"What She Left For Us" lyrics - SHARI ULRICH

This is my mother's pillow
This is my mother's bed
This is the place she closed her eyes
And laid her weary head
Letters, maps and photographs
That mark the march of time
This is what she left for us to find

I am my mother's shadow
I am my mother's breath
I am the force of a well lived life
That never wanted less
Be yourself and god is love
And above all else, be kind
This is what she left for us to find

There's that smile
There's her laugh
There's her stubborn pride
I see it all every day
In my daughter's eyes

You are your grandma's shadow
You are your grandmas' breath
You are the force of a well lived life
That never wanted less
So grab your future with both hands
And let her spirit shine
For this is what she left for us
The family that she loved so much
This is what she left for us to find
