Leah

Leah's mother and me were quite a pair

So we looked in the paper for a dog and a house to share

Her and her little girl came

Suddenly I had to explain

Things like lightning - why is it so mad at the rain?

Leah's mother left one morning in an April fog

Leaving me the saddest little girl and a nasty dog

Leaving me to answer why

When Leah asks as she cries

"Why did she leave me this way?"

And softly I say...

CHORUS:

"Leah - mothers love their daughters

I'm sure that she still cares for you now

And Leah - lay upon my shoulders

I'll be taking care of you now"

Leah's mother's been gone for a very long time

And Leah and me are sorta like the blind leading the blind

But when she asks about the fallen Queen

Sometimes I want to say somethin' so mean

But I hold my pain inside

And softly I say......

CHORUS ( to end)
