mother tongue Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I didn't see it coming (Coming)
But I never really had much faith
In the universe's magic (Magic), oh, no
Till it pulled us to that time and place
And I'll never forget
When the floodgates opened, we, we cried an ocean
It still has me choking; it's hard to explain
I know you know me, you don't have to show me
I, I feel you're lonely, no need to explain
[Chorus]
So don't say you love me, fala, "amo"
Just let your heart speak up, and I'll know
No amount of words could ever find a way to make sense of this
So I wanna hear your mother tongue
So don't say you love me, fala, "amo"
Just let your heart speak up, and I'll know
No amount of words could ever find a way to make sense of this
So I wanna hear your mother tongue
[Verse 2]
And yeah, I could be punching
But I always tend to fluctuate
And I feel sick that I'm buzzing, oh, love, I'm in trouble
I'm sorry, but you got me gushing all over the place
I never wanna get wet
But I think we're chosen like our fates were woven
And all of those bad choices were left turns on the way
[Chorus]
So don't say you love me, fala, "amo"
Just let your heart speak up, and I'll know
No amount of words could ever find a way to make sense of this
So I wanna hear your mother tongue
So don't say you love me, fala, "amo"
Just let your heart speak up, and I'll know
No amount of words could ever find a way to make sense of this
So I wanna hear your mother tongue
[Bridge]
I think best way to explain, it's like (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Yeah, kinda like that, but a little more (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, all makes sense, right? Like (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Like (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Like (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus]
So don't say you love me, fala, "amo"
Just let your heart speak up, and I'll know
No amount of words could ever find a way to make sense of this
So I wanna hear your mother tongue
So don't say you love me, fala, "amo"
Just let your heart speak up, and I'll know
No amount of words could ever find a way to make sense of this
So I wanna hear your mother tongue
So don't say you love me, fala, "amo"
Just let your heart speak up, and I'll know
No amount of words could ever find a way to make sense of this
So I wanna hear your mother tongue

What did Bring Me The Horizon say about "mother tongue"?
It’s probably the most gushing, out there, just straight up love song we’ve ever written. This was one of the easier ones to write because it was positive. It’s about when I first met my new wife and she’s from Brazil.
She didn’t speak so much English. She talked a lot better than my Portuguese, bu...
What inspired this song?
Sykes: Inspiration was my wife really. The whole album is about love. The ups and downs of it and stuff, and this is just kind of talking about when I first met my now wife, call her Alissa, she’s from Brazil. She didn’t speak much English, and I spoke no Portuguese. We just had a connection from th...
How did you link up with co-producer Jordan Fish?
Sykes: I met Jordan, he had a band called Worship, quite some time ago, which I’m a massive fan of. We got speaking. He started coming down and doing some writing sessions with us. I was like “Do you want to,” we usually get someone in to help us write the digital stuff, because we had no one before...
What was the songwriting process like?
I think like after our last album and we toured it for about two years, and we had a good break off and we was kind of like we needed to love music again, do you know what I mean? We needed to feel inspired, so we took some time off and I think when we came back to writing a record our perspective o...
