[00:00.01]	Amanda Mcbroom-the Portrait
[00:05.00]
[00:11.10]	There's a picture in a silver frame hanging dusty on my wall.
[00:22.25]	And two people with their eyes the same holding daisies, I recall.
[00:32.80]	And the baby in the sailor dress and the pigtails - that was me.
[00:42.93]	And the other was my mother on our Easter by the sea.
[00:54.87]	People tell me that I'm just like her and I wonder what they see.
[01:05.82]	She was lady, lace and cameo, not the gypsy, that is me.
[01:15.72]	She spent her evenings making poetry, I spend my nights making time.
[01:25.01]	And I wonder, am I living partly her dreams, partly mine.
[01:33.92]	What would she think of the too many men
[01:39.56]	The lies I get lost in, again and again
[01:44.28]	The tears in the morning, the booze and the blues in the night.
[01:52.22]
[01:57.66]	It's been years now since I've seen her face, heard her footsteps on the stair,
[02:09.39]	but just lately in my dreams at night,
[02:14.73]	I will call her and she's there
[02:19.32]	looking pretty like she used to before time and tears tore her apart.And she tells me that she loves me then she leaves me in the dark.
[02:38.79]	Mama don't leave me, Mama don't go.
[02:43.96]	You know the answers to all I don't know.
[02:48.29]	My dreams come up empty and my hearts lying dead on the floor.
[02:56.68]	Mama don't leave me, Mama please stay.
[03:00.38]	Mama I need you to show me the way.
[03:04.26]	I'm lost and I'm lonely and I can't find my way anymore.
[03:16.17]	Mama -- Mama
