Michael Patrick Murphy - So Much More Than This

Mama said he was nothing
Boy won't amount to much
His daddy left and didn't look back
In a loaded down pick up truck
Staring out at the night sky
Words came to his lips
Must be so much more than this
Early one summer morning
He heard his sister cry
Mama yelled you're a damn fool
How are you going raise it right
Finished at the beginning
His sister turned to him and said
Must be so much more than this
See it when I close my eyes
Pretty dreams the world will hide
Lost among the hurt of the heart
Two paths which way to go
One down and one of hope
One thing is for sure
You're on your own
He got a call from an old friend
As winter just begun
His little girl, only thing in this world
She's barely hanging on
Holding her hand from the bedside
He gave her one more kiss
Must be so much more than this
See it when I close my eyes
Pretty dreams the world will hide
Lost among the hurt of the heart
Two paths which way to go
One down and one of hope
One thing is for sure
You're on your own
On your own
Oh Yeah
Oh Yeah
See it when I close my eyes
Pretty dreams the world will hide
Lost among the hurt of the heart
Two paths which way to go
One down and one of hope
One thing is for sure
You're on your own
