Hey Mam
Miss Montreal Lyrics

Hey mam
The singer addresses her mother and starts a conversation with her.

Ik zit te denken aan jou en ik wou dat je langs kwam
The singer is missing her mother and wishes she could be with her.

Want ik mis wie we samen zijn nu al zolang

Je weet niet wat je met je meenam, o mam

Ik begrijp je nu beter dan ik ooit deed toen
The singer now understands her mother's perspective better than before.

Ik heb in je schoenen gestaan en fout gedaan
The singer has experienced what her mother has been through and has made mistakes, just like her.

God, ik had geen idee wat ik moest doen
The singer realizes that she didn't know how to deal with certain situations, just like her mother probably didn't either.

Ik zie hoe ik op je lijk en dat is raar
The singer notices the similarities between her and her mother and finds it strange.

Want ik hoorde alleen je stem als we zongen met elkaar
The singer associated her mother's voice with the moments they shared together through singing.

Ook nu je weg bent, luister maar
Even though her mother is not physically present, the singer feels her mother's presence through memories and emotions.

Je ben nog altijd daar
The singer feels her mother's love and support in everything she does, even if she's not physically present.

Ik hoop dat je weet hoeveel ik van je hou
The singer wants to express her love to her mother and hopes that she understands how much she means to her.

Dat ik net als jij op mijn gevoel vertrouw
The singer has learned from her mother and trusts her instincts, just like her.

Ik geloof in mezelf, dat is toch wat je wou
The singer believes in herself and hopes that her mother is proud of her for doing so.

Ik geloof ook in jou
The singer believes in her mother and her strength to overcome any obstacles.

Er is geen mens ter wereld bij wie ik nog zo klein kan zijn als bij mijn mam, bij mijn mam
The singer feels most comfortable and safe with her mother, and no one else can replace that feeling.

Er is er echt maar één tegen wie je dit woord zeggen kan, Hey mam
The singer acknowledges that her mother is irreplaceable and the only one she can address as 'Hey mam'.

Hey mam
The singer ends the song with another address to her mother.
