Mother is a song about growing up. It is about acceptance and love, of finding the maturity and distance from your childish ways to finally witness the bigger picture of life, love, and being your mother’s daughter.
lyrics
Mama don’t you love him so?
Just wanna light the way wherever he goes
And kiss his forehead when he needs to know
He’ll have a home in you, you won’t be alone
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
