Mother, Father

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 lightning 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 ties 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

Don't you know that I'm alive for you
I'm your seventh son
And when lightning strikes the family
Have faith, believe.

Don't you know that I'm alive for you
I'm your seventh son
And when lightning strikes the family
Have faith, believe.

Have faith, believe, believe.
