painter

there's a picture that she's painting 
there's another on the wall 
and too many that are hanging 
softly sitting on each hall 
and they're crying for attention 
sometimes no one cares to look 
but i've got some oh so closely 
read  her pages like a book 

and while i worshiped my own father 
i can't say that he is dead 
and so now i sit here crying 
for the things i've never said 
she is here and she's a savior., 
i don't know how much to say it 
hear the thunder as as it echoes 
god is lonesome and i pray it 

but i still feel her beside me 
like the night comes with the day 
oh my mother hold me closer 
with these words i cannot say 

and we grieve with one another 
one we lost throughout the years 
and we cry sometimes in silence 
when we can't control the tears 
and while i worshiped my own father 
i can't say that he is dead 
and now i sit here crying 
for the things i've never said 

she is here and she's a savior., 
i don't know how much to say it 
hear the thunder as amit echoes 
god is lonesome and i pray it 
but i still feel her beside me 
like the night comes with the day 
oh my mother only closer 
with these words i cannot say 

and we grieve with one another 
one we lost throughout the years 
and we cry sometimes in silence 
when we can't control the tears
