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] |
music |
| [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 |
