Lyrics 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 how you taught me so many things
From child 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-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Some days you were cryin' 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 life my very own way
Through rain 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
