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′, believin′
Hey mother, father, dreamer
Don′t you know that I′m alive for you, I′m your seventh son
And when lightnin′ strikes the family, have faith, believe
With dreams he tried, 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 lies of blood were strong
So much to say, those yesterdays, so now don′t you turn away
Hey mother, father, sister, hey, come back, tryin′, believin′
Hey mother, father, dreamer
