A Song For My Mother - Hadise

Mother, mother, mother

This is for you

I still remember the day you said to me

«My baby, you can do whatever you wanna do

When you grow up, when you’re up, baby»

And I still remember now

'Cause you taught me so many things

From time to girl and from girl to boys

And that’s how I started to know myself

I still can remember how we lived together

How you cared for me in times of misery

I’ll always remember how you were my mentor

One day I hope to be

Just like the mother that you are for me

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Some days you were crying so much

You were so young and you did everything

All on your own, you were alone, yeah

And I thank you now 'cause you taught me so many things

From girl to woman and from woman to you

And you’re there whenever I need your help

I still can remember how we lived together

How you cared for me in times of misery

I’ll always remember how you were my mentor

One day I hope to be

Just like the mother that you are for me

Normally, in my life, I don’t want the world to see me cry

But if I get emotional, that’s because you are so special

And I don’t care what people say

I’ll live my live my very on way

Through wind and stormy weather

You’ll always be my mother

I still can remember how we lived together

How you cared for me in times of misery

I’ll always remember how you were my mentor

One day I hope to be

Just like the mother that you are for me
