I'm writing this song in english
Because its content is very personal
And I don't feel confident enough
To say it in portuguese

I wish I was closer to my mother
I feel we have a lot in common
But she has never been the mother type
She has always been shy and reserved
Just like I am
I think I have never received enough motherly love
Sometimes I wish my mother would hug me when I'm sad
She is getting older and I'm worried about her
I wish my mother would hug me when I am sad

Sometimes when I come home at night
I cry alone in my bed

I'm afraid of being alone in the universe
