I was there in the room
The day my baby died
And oh, how she cried
Wrapped up in her cloak of darkness
She saw a brighter light on the other side
She cried, âOh Mama, I canât live this lieâ
Then, she was gone with a smile
CHORUS:
Well, I buried her in a picture frame
The dust grows thick now upon her name
But I love her still the same
I was there in the room
The day my baby was born
And oh, how he cried
He birthed himself out of the darkness
A newborn manchild fell into my world
Chest filled with pride to have him by my side
Though it killed my baby girl
[CHORUS]
My heart wears a veil of mourning
A painted smile on my face
A million memories of soft skin & angel songs
Even time cannot erase
I was there in the room
The day my baby said Goodbye
And oh how I cried
He traded in my pinks for a strangerâs blues
My skin ainât home to him anymore
He cried, âOh Mama, I canât live this lieâ
My heart just walked right out the door
CHORUS:
Well, I buried her in a picture frame
The dust grows thick now upon her name
But I love her still the same
And there ainât no one to blame
But Iâll never be the same
