kerry butler - the portrait كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
there’s a picture in a silver frame
hanging dusty on my wall
of two people
with their lays the seam
holding daisies, i recall
and the baby in the sailor dress
and the pigtails, that was me
and the other was my mother
on our easter by the sea

[verse 2]
people tell me that i’m just like her
and i wonder, what they see
she was a lady, lace and cam
and the gypsy, that is me
she spent her evenings making poetry
i spend my nights making
and i wonder, am i living
partly her dreams, partly mine

[bridge]
what would she think of the too many men
whose lives i get lost in again and again
the tears in the morning
the booze and the blues in the night
[verse 3]
it’s been years now
since i’ve seen her face
heard her footsteps on the stair
but she’s living in my dreams at night
i will call and she’s there
looking pretty like she used to
before time tore her apart
and she tells me
that she loves me
and she leaves me in the dark

[chorus]
mama don’t leave me
mama don’t go
you have the answers to all i don’t know
my dreams come up empty
and my hearts lying dead on the floor

mama don’t leave me
mama please stay
mama i need you to show me the way
i’m lost and i’m lonely
and i can’t find my way anymore

mama!
mama
