Mother
Axel Hirsoux Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’m coming home,
I'm broken hearted and I need,
Time to shelter,
I need your love,
A hand to hold, a heart to heal, a voice to help me through, through…

And when hope is low,
You find the words to make me feel, so much better,
When I’ve had enough, oh I’ve had enough,
Of all the tears and all the hurt I can count on you, only you…

And once again mother,
You are right there mother,
You are my guiding light,
My shoulder, my shelter, my satellite,
I'm weak, you're bright.

It's not said enough,
But you mean the world to me you're more, than a soulmate,
And you should know, oh you should know,
I'm so thankful and so hopeful that some day soon, i'll shine like you…

And once again mother,
You are right there mother,
You are my guiding light,
My shoulder, my shelter, my satellite,
I'm weak, you're bright,
Give me your strength, oh mother,
Give me your care mother,
You are my guiding light,
My shoulder, my shelter, my satellite,
I'm weak, you're bright,
And once again mother, / You're all I have mother,




And once again mother, / You're all I have mother,
Oh mother...

I really like this song. It’s very emotional and expressive. The theatrics are rising in every verse, and when you think that’s it, they still carry on rising. I have heard all 37 contributions from the ESC CD, and I liked this song most. So I searched it at YouTube, and I didn’t expect such a physical constitution of the singer, but this makes the presentation really authentic.

@moviehouse6882

"you are my guiding light
my shoulder,my shelter,my satellite".....really I am so impressed now.good luck from Azerbaijan

@violenthipshaking

"You're my satellite" reminds me from Germany 2010.
This song can make it to top 10, top 5 or even top 3!
By the way, the entry from your country is amazing too, but for the Azeri, I'm worrying about Armenia, with their song...

@bartekm_1995

I personally for Azebaijan win, my favourite since Arash and Aysel. =P Of course, Ell & Nikki are my all time favourites. I hope this year there will be a gold medal, I dislike Armenian song.

@Muistimetalli

I can't believe that this didn't qualify, this is one of the very few ballads that really touched me, I really had to struggle in order to not shed a tear. Love from Finland!
