Taylor Swift is taking a break from writing bitter songs about heartache and Joe Jonas to pen a song for her mother.

The 19-year-old 2008 Grammy Award nominee pays tribute to her mom on her upcoming single “The Best Day,” featured on her hit sophomore album Fearless.

Taylor told country music website TheBoot.com on Friday. “The coolest thing about my mom is she’s always been so real with me, and she’s been honest with me no matter what. Even when I was pre-teen, that’s when I needed her the most. That’s usually when people are (in the) too-cool-for-their-parents stage.

Well, I was really not cool enough for anyone but my parents in that phase. I had no friends. My mom was the one person that I could turn to and who never, ever hurt me.
