Lyrics
I grew so old In that house I lived in They brought me here 'Cause I can't take care
I lost my worth And my purpose here I feel you cry But I can't speak my mind
Will you hold me And never let me go 'Cause I hate it when you walk outside that door 'Cause I know I won't ever see your eyes The eyes I gave you
When my eyes shut They'll take me to the land For fiftie years I lived there with my man And on my own I lived for fortie more I watched you grow up From babies on the floor
To the beautiful women that you are And I hated that you've gone away so far Cause I know I won't ever see those eyes The eyes I gave you
The evenings fall They'll drag me out the hall Up to my bunk and drug me 'til I'm numb But pass the haze I see your pretty face Remember me when I'm gone
You know I love you Though I can hardly say And I hate it when you see me in this way But in darkness I'll always see those eyes The eyes I gave you
