ruth marie - red house painters lyrics

Loading...

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 fifty years i lived there with my man
and on my own i lived for forty 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 p-ss 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
