The lyrics speak about a mother’s love, which is unique, and how a mother can feel everything her child feels, even from afar: “Cause when my heart was breaking/ I knew your heart was aching/ Thousand miles away/ You could hear my heartbeat/ Knew just how I was feeling/ Always knew just what to say.
