Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver - More Behind the Picture Than the Wall lyrics

rate me

<br>

I was cleaning out the closet, throwin' things away<br>

I'd forgotten all about it, when I looked, there it lay<br>

I picked it up, found a frame and hung it in the hall<br>

But there's more behind this picture than the wall<br>

<br>

It was taken on that trip we took back in '92<br>

Casey sure didn't look like me, Lord, he looked like you<br>

We had no way of knowing then, just how the cards would fall<br>

Yeah, there's more behind this picture than the wall<br>

<br>

Casey joined the army, they sent him far from home<br>

Lori moved to Hollywood, pre-tending she was grown<br>

You and I held on and tried, to make sense of it all<br>

There's more behind this picture than the wall<br>

<br>

Too soon our little family, was scattered to the wind<br>

You fell out of love with me, wouldn't fall back in<br>

I was sleepin' by myself the night I got that call<br>

Yeah, there's more behind this picture than the wall<br>

<br>

Casey died a hero, that's what the Chaplin said<br>

We couldn't find sweet glory, our doubt ain't over yet<br>

You and I still tortured by the memories we recall<br>

There's more behind this picture than the wall<br>

<br>

Four happy lovin' faces, back then we had it all<br>

But there's more behind this picture than the wall<br>

Than the wal<br>

<br>
