[00:00.59]Faithful Son - Patty Griffin
[00:43.97]Oh my god, crying your fear,
[00:49.10]Afraid you have forgotten me here.
[00:52.85]
[00:54.10]Afraid you have forgotten one
[00:58.97]The quiet doll and faithful son.
[01:03.03]
[01:12.16]Went to war, I worked all day,
[01:16.91]But I want it to run astay
[01:21.93]I kept the promises I made,
[01:26.97]I kept the promises I made.
[01:30.52]
[01:35.84]Little children came and grew,
[01:40.78]Moved away and never knew
[01:46.15]Who I was or who I am
[01:50.59]No, they never knew just who I am.
[01:54.84]
[01:58.78]When those mornings came stiffed with rain
[02:02.53]
[02:03.34]I thought the sun will never shine again
[02:08.46]
[02:09.03]With the sleeze in my old rain coat stain
[02:13.84]With the salt of my own tears
[02:18.83]
[02:19.59]And I never would tell you then
[02:24.46]So I never will tell you now
[02:29.78]All the things that break an old man down
[02:33.90]
[02:35.03]The real thing is I don’t know how.
[02:39.47]
[03:23.50]Oh my god, I cry your fear,
[03:27.63]
[03:29.07]Afraid you have forgotten me here
[03:33.50]
[03:34.50]Afraid you have forgotten one
[03:37.50]
[03:39.32]A quiet doll and faithful son.
[03:43.25]
[03:44.69]I seen a lonely yesterday
[03:48.94]
[03:49.94]And fought the dirty that still wakes
[03:54.94]The men inside would’ve run away
[03:59.19]
[04:00.32]From the promises I made.
