The Portrait (肖像) - Amanda McBroom[00:00:00]

There's a picture in a silver frame[00:00:11]

Hanging dusty on my wall [00:00:17]

And two people with their eyes[00:00:22]

The same holding daisies I recall [00:00:28]

And the baby in the sailor dress[00:00:33]

And the pigtails - that was me [00:00:37]

And the other was my mother[00:00:43]

On our Easter by the sea [00:00:49]

People tell me that I'm just like her[00:00:55]

And I wonder what they see [00:01:01]

She was lady lace and cameo [00:01:06]

Not the gypsy that is me [00:01:10]

She spent her evenings making poetry [00:01:16]

I spend my nights making time [00:01:20]

And I wonder [00:01:23]

Am I living partly her dreams [00:01:26]

Partly mine [00:01:30]

What would she think of the too many men[00:01:35]

The lies I get lost in again and again[00:01:39]

The tears in the morning [00:01:44]

The booze and the blues in the night [00:01:47]

It's been years now since I've seen her face [00:01:59]

Heard her footsteps on the stair [00:02:07]

But just lately in my dreams at night [00:02:10]

I will call her and she's there[00:02:14]

Looking pretty like she used to[00:02:19]

Before time and tears tore her apart [00:02:23]

And she tells me that she loves me[00:02:28]

Then she leaves me in the dark [00:02:32]

Mama don't leave me [00:02:39]

Mama don't go [00:02:42]

You know the answers to all I don't know [00:02:44]

My dreams come up empty[00:02:48]

And my hearts lying dead on the floor [00:02:50]

Mama don't leave me [00:02:56]

Mama please stay [00:02:58]

Mama I need you to show me the way [00:03:00]

I'm lost and I'm lonely and[00:03:04]

I can't find my way anymore [00:03:07]

Mama -- Mama[00:03:17]
