I think it is so gorgeous. It creeps me out a little and is beautiful at the same time. Also, quite haunting I should say...lol
it's about Aids and homosexuality in general
'Sweet mother love' means 'smooth anal entrance' in gay slang.
"I don't want to sleep with you
I don't need the passion too
I don't want a stormy affair "
The person who this song is about is a homosexual male infected with Hiv Aids. (Possibly Freddie) He sings in this verse that he is too sick and fragile to have sex with his boyfriend.
"All I want is the comfort and care
Just to know that my woman gives me sweet mother love"
He doesn't want sex, but he does want that his woman (= boyfriend in gay world) brings him to the toilet and feeds him pieces of mango.
"I've walked too long in this lonely lane
I've had enough of this same old game"
He sings that he has been lonely for a long time, and that he's sick of it.
"I'm a man of the world and they say that I'm strong
But my heart is heavy, and my hope is gone"
with man of the world he means that he was a very famous person. And people thought he was strong. But in the next sentence he says he is not strong. And that he doesn't have any hope left because he's dying from Aids.
"My body's aching, but I can't sleep
My dreams are all the company I keep"
His body hurts from the Aids virus destroying his body from the inside (see: Fight from the Inside for other Aids related lyrics) He doesn't have any real friends, so his dreams are the only things he has left.
"Got such a feeling as the sun goes down
I'm coming home to my sweet mother love"
When the night falls he is scared because he may not live to see the dawn. And he has a feeling he's going to die ("coming home")

SHUT UP!! YOU'RE SAYING STUPID THINGS!!
NOBODY KNOWS WHAT IT'S ABOUT, AND THAT'S ALL!!

Well, this is the last song Freddie ever sang. I think it´s about... how can i say? the lyrics in some way show that the person that is referring is regretful about all he did, that´s why, in my opinion, the song is called mother love, beacause he would only find confort with the love of his mother and nobody else ("all i want is the confort and care... just to know that my woman (mother) gives sweet...). Of course there will be millions of interpretations but this is how i see it. farewell!!

Oh please, Fight from the inside was written WAY before he had AIDS.

Besides (Fried Chicken), have you even considered the fact that the whole song could be metaphorical in which only Freddie knows what it really means?
hmm...there's a possibility that fried chicken is being sarcastic.
