Journey: Mother, Father

She sits alone, an empty stare



A mother's face she wears


Where did she go wrong,


the fight is gone


Lord help this broken home



Hey, mother, father, sister


Hey, come back, tryin', believein'


Hey, mother, father, dreamer



Don't you know that I'm alive for you


I'm your seventh son


And when lightning strikes the family


Have faith, believe.




With dreams he tried, but lost his pride


He drinks his life away


One photograph, in broken glass


It should not end this way.



Through bitter tears


And wounded years, those ties


of blood were strong


So much to say, those yesterdays


So now don't you turn away.
