| Jack Savoretti – Mother Lyrics | 1 year ago |

I take from it that he's either in one of the middle Eastern countries where they still hold public executions and he's inadvertently broken one of their laws whilst working away from home or he's a soldier from a past war, captured and executed publicly. 'they killed a man for doing wrong today', 'far from home where he dies all alone' and 'only the good die young' suggest he is innocently caught up in something that makes him culpable to others. I'd love to know what Jack Savoretti's reasoning was behind this song. |
