Lyrics
Hello, dear mother
Greeting the mother affectionately
How goes the up-and-running?
Inquiring about the well-being or progress
How are you doing?
Asking about the mother's state
How is that infamous back pain?
Checking on the mother's notorious back pain
I'm out here wondering
Expressing personal uncertainty or searching
I'm yet to find my footing
Still figuring things out in life
But I'm trying to work it out
Struggling but attempting to resolve issues
This adulthood takes some practice
Reflecting on the challenges of adulthood
Oh, I want my mother here for Christmas
Longing for the presence of the mother during Christmas, expressing deep yearning and missing her
Oh, it's been three years and oh, I miss her
-Oh, I want my mother here for Christmas
-Oh, it's been three years and oh, I miss her
-Well, I miss her
-Well, I miss her
-I met this woman
Describing heartbreak from a failed relationship and challenges with an employer, finding humor in the midst of misery, acknowledging the need for maternal affection
She broke my heart into pieces
-And my employer
-He is a bit of a dickhead
-You'd find some humour
-In all this misery I'm in
-And I am a grown man
-But never too grown for your kisses
-Oh, I want my mother here for Christmas
Reiterating the strong desire for the mother's presence during Christmas, emphasizing the prolonged absence and intense feelings of missing her
Oh, it's been three years and oh, I miss her
-Oh, I want my mother here for Christmas
-Oh, it's been three years and oh, I miss her
-Well, I miss her
-Well, I miss her
-Well, I miss her, yeah
Continued expressions of deep longing and missing the mother, repeated for emotional emphasis
Well, I miss her, oh
-Well, I miss her, yeah
-Well, I miss her, oh
-Well, I miss her, yeah
-Well, I miss her, oh yeah
-Well, I miss her, yeah
-Well, I miss her
-Oh, I want my mother here for Christmas
Final reiteration of the intense desire for the mother to be present during Christmas after three years of absence
Oh, it's been three years and oh, I miss her
