Song Lyrics:

EVEN THOUGH I SEEMED TO CHANGE MY STYLE
EVEN THOUGH I CHANGED MYSELF
FROM FASHION TO MY SMILE

YOU HELD ME UP
AND BELIEVED I WAS WORTHWHILE
GUIDING ME WITH GENTLE HANDS
THAT HELPED SET MY DIRECTION
PAVED THE WAY
BEFORE I WALKED EACH MILE

YOU WERE THERE FOR ME, MOM

YOU'D ALWAYS BRUSH THE TEARDROPS
FROM MY EYES
TODAY I WIPE THE TEARS FROM YOUR'S
I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU CRY
AFTER ALL, THIS TIME IS MEANT FOR SMILES
ON THIS WEDDING DAY

I JUST WANT TO SAY
I LOVE YOU, MOM

CHORUS
OOOOOOH I MADE MISTAKES AS I BECAME A MAN
YOU'D ALWAYS UNDERSTAND
JUST AS A MOTHER CAN
I PROMISE YOU TO TREAT
MY WIFE THE SAME
AND I'M PROUD TO SAY
YOU HELPED ME FEEL THIS WAY

INSTRUMENTAL

REPEAT CHORUS

I MADE MISTAKES AS I BECAME A MAN
YOU'D ALWAYS UNDERSTAND
JUST AS A MOTHER CAN
I PROMISE YOU TO TREAT
MY WIFE THE SAME
AND I'M PROUD TO SAY
YOU HELPED ME FEEL THIS WAY

EVEN THOUGH I SEEMED TO CHANGE MY STYLE
EVEN THOUGH I CHANGED MYSELF
FROM FASHION TO MY SMILE
I LEAVE YOUR GUIDING HAND
TO WALK THE AISLE

ON MY WEDDING DAY

I JUST WANT TO STOP

AND THANK YOU

I WANT TO SAY I LOVE YOU, MOM

OH YES I DO

OH A OH A OH

(SPOKEN WORDS) I LOVE YOU, MOM
My name is Steve Zuccarello and I feel fortunate to have composed, played and recorded the music for this beautiful song "On This Day". This song is a special tribute to a mother from her son on his wedding day.

The inspiration for this song came suddenly, but the thought had been simmering for a long time in the back of my mind. From time to time I was asked if I could compose a wedding song from a son to his mother, as there is very little from which to choose. Unlike Father/Daughter songs i.e. "Daddy's Little Girl"

The way songwriting works for me is I suddenly hear the entire song in my head as if it was being played live and I will also get some phrases to go along with the song at certain points in the melody. "On This Day" was one such song. The melody and chords came to me all at once as well as the first 2 lines that I knew had to be part of the lyrics.

I then passed this on to my songwriting partner Denise Christinzio who then wrote the rest of the beautiful lyrics. This made a well-balanced song, perfect (we think) for an occasion such as the Mother/Son dance at a wedding reception.

The strong, heartfelt sentiment demonstrated by the music and lyrics in this song invokes such emotion and feeling that it brings many to tears the first time they listen to it. Which is more than I could have hoped for. I also hope that many Grooms and their mothers will choose this song for their Mother/Son dance.

All of us involved in the creation and performance of this song thank you and wish you much happiness.

Best Regards

Steve Z.
