lyrics

I turn the light on
I put my phone down
I look around the room
The TV chair where
She sat and watched
While she brushed her hair
The last time I saw her
The last time she knew
Who I was

I let my thoughts drift
I let my mind shift
To the way she used to be
When she could greet me
Say my name
And take me by the hand
And lead me through the kitchen
Tell me it was good
To see me again

Oh, mother I miss you
Where have you gone
Oh, mother you left me
Here all alone

I turn to go now
Pick up my phone and
Turn out the light
Pull the door closed
Take out the key
And look at it in my hand
Wishing it were magic
That it could unlock her mind
And set her free

Oh, mother I miss you
Where have you gone
Oh, mother you left me
Here all alone
Mother I miss you
Where did you go
Mother I miss you
And you'll never know

Ash McDaniel Tennessee

I started playing the guitar and writing songs at 15 and have been at it ever since, even though I've "traveled the breadth of extremities" (Joni Mitchell, Hejira) between then and now. Here I am, again.
