A Mother's Love
Unfading Bonds: Ian Fisher's Ode to a Mother's Love
Lyrics
I touched down in the morning
I arrived in the morning
with just a suitcase and a note
Carrying only a suitcase and a note
with nothing much to guide me
Without much guidance
but the words that she wrote
Relying on the words she wrote
the memory is blurry
The memory is unclear
but the message never changed
But the message remains consistent
a mother's love never fades
A mother's love is enduring and timeless
with nothing to hold on to
With nothing tangible to cling to
I reached out for anything
Reaching out for any support
strong enough to hold me
Seeking strength to carry and lightness to sing
and light enough to sing
Expressing the need for a delicate balance
though many women taught me songs
Various women influenced and taught songs
only one remains
Yet only one, likely his mother, remains significant
a mother's love never fades
Reiterating the enduring nature of a mother's love
and though I ran away as soon as I was old enough
Even though he left home when old enough
it was never you I was running from
He wasn't running from his mother
so if you're out there I hope that you know
If she's out there, he hopes she understands
everywhere I've gone
Throughout his journey alone
since I set out on my own
His mother's influence has been omnipresent
you have come along
She has always been his home
always been my home
Regardless of where he goes
when my soul's compass is spinning
When feeling lost, her love serves as a guide
one thing can set it straight
A mother's love can bring direction to a confused soul
a mother's love never fades
Reaffirming the enduring quality of maternal love
a mother's love never fades
Repeated emphasis on the everlasting nature of a mother's love
