SanitariumI dream of a figure in the rain Like a nightmare in a bad thunderstorm I see shadows in a bedroom window Moving in a ghostly form If heaven is an old love letter Hell must be a sad and tormented mind How can she still haunt me like a graveyard Even after all this time Chorus: Oh mama are you coming To see me today I have some bad recollections But I'll be OK Memories can't chase you Once you have buried them Mama I've been digging holes In this sanitarium Her love was a field of betrayal And my trust was as fertile as good earth When I tried to take those crops to market I found out what they were worth They say what goes around comes around I guess all my sorrow came around good But you know I wouldn't change a damn thing Even if somehow I could Chorus: Oh mama are you coming To see me today I have some bad recollections But I'll be OK Memories can't chase you Once you have buried them Mama I've been digging holes In this sanitarium Bridge: And all the holes I dig Turn up so empty Nothing in and nothing out And these walls are so high Mama please don't cry Chorus: Oh mama are you coming To see me today I have some bad recollections But I'll be OK Memories can't chase you Once you have buried them Mama I've been digging holes In this sanitarium Copyright Kent Newsome and Bob Clay All Rights Reserved |
