My first little picture show,
I remember well.
Cowboys and country songs
Came when I was twelve.
(But) maybe I was half that age
In a sandbox listening to a record play
Times are windows
For passing by
It happened just this morning
I was standing in the stairs.
Paper butterflies
Were hanging in the air.
You never sing happy songs
And yet you smile all the time that we've known
It seems like something happened back then.
I can see it in the lines in your skin
I believe that all the happy endings aren't found
But with patience are made.
My mama said that we were cursed
And so she cried.
The spirit world can't be reversed
So we all must die
I totally shook it off,
It's in the mind's eye that you become strong
I tried to help her understand,
But in the end she would not take a helping hand
You never sing happy songs
And yet you smile all the time that we've known
It seems like something happened back then.
I can see it in the lines in your skin
I don't believe you have to tell me
Anything you don't want to say
I believe that all the happy endings aren't found
But with patience are made.
