I Wrote This Song In English 'Cause It's Very Personal And I'm Too Shy To Say It In Portuguese

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
