Picture In A Drawer
[Verse 1]
It's raining in the mountains
It's heading this way
It's supposed to rain tomorrow
Or the next day
I'm sure I'll get along baby
But a whole lot has changed
Yours is the first voice I've heard in days
[Verse 2]
Oh but mama if you don't mind
Can we talk about something else?
Mama, please don't come over
Saying nothing you can't help
You'll be the first to know when I start to come around
I'm not drowning I'm just seeing how long I can stay down
[Chorus]
And mama, she's gone
And just a picture in a drawer
The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more
Mama, she's gone
[Verse 3]
Well you know there's nothing tying me to this town now that she's gone
Don't know why I ever come back
Guess I just tagged along
Can't believe that once I called this place my home
'Cause I'm walking the streets and all I see is ghosts
[Chorus]
Mama, she's gone
And just a picture in a drawer
The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more
Mama, she's gone
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Lonely, lonely and wondering where I am
And I know the love I see is over long before it began
[Verse 4]
And now the rain's getting closer
Midnight's coming on
The wind seems to whisper
You fool you know she's gone
I still leave the gate unlatched just in case she staggers home
Mama said she was no good
And now she's gone
It's raining in the mountains
It's heading this way
It's supposed to rain tomorrow
Or the next day
I'm sure I'll get along baby
But a whole lot has changed
Yours is the first voice I've heard in days
[Verse 2]
Oh but mama if you don't mind
Can we talk about something else?
Mama, please don't come over
Saying nothing you can't help
You'll be the first to know when I start to come around
I'm not drowning I'm just seeing how long I can stay down
[Chorus]
And mama, she's gone
And just a picture in a drawer
The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more
Mama, she's gone
[Verse 3]
Well you know there's nothing tying me to this town now that she's gone
Don't know why I ever come back
Guess I just tagged along
Can't believe that once I called this place my home
'Cause I'm walking the streets and all I see is ghosts
[Chorus]
Mama, she's gone
And just a picture in a drawer
The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more
Mama, she's gone
