amanda mcbroom-the portrait[00:00:00]
there's a picture in a silver frame hanging dusty on my wall.[00:00:11]
and two people with their eyes the same holding daisies, i recall.[00:00:22]
and the baby in the sailor dress and the pigtails - that was me.[00:00:32]
and the other was my mother on our easter by the sea.[00:00:42]
people tell me that i'm just like her and i wonder what they see.[00:00:54]
she was lady, lace and cameo, not the gypsy, that is me.[00:01:05]
she spent her evenings making poetry, i spend my nights making time.[00:01:15]
and i wonder, am i living partly her dreams, partly mine.[00:01:25]
what would she think of the too many men[00:01:33]
the lies i get lost in, again and again[00:01:39]
the tears in the morning, the booze and the blues in the night.[00:01:44]
it's been years now since i've seen her face, heard her footsteps on the stair,[00:01:57]
but just lately in my dreams at night,[00:02:09]
i will call her and she's there[00:02:14]
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.[00:02:19]
mama don't leave me, mama don't go.[00:02:38]
you know the answers to all i don't know.[00:02:43]
my dreams come up empty and my hearts lying dead on the floor.[00:02:48]
mama don't leave me, mama please stay.[00:02:56]
mama i need you to show me the way.[00:03:00]
i'm lost and i'm lonely and i can't find my way anymore.[00:03:04]
mama -- mama[00:03:16]
