Mr. Davis Lyrics by The Gentle Hits

The Gentle Hits

2016

When I came to see you
You were confused and weak
Drifting in and out of sleep
And you struggled to speak
As we clung to the illusion of time
And my thoughts fell back to the days in the past
To where everything lasts like your contagious laugh
When I didn't know that all things must pass
Now I'm looking in my momma's eyes
I don't know how we will ever get by
And it's burned in my mind
The kindest of eyes
The selflessness I saw in you every time
From the cars and your patience
With everything breaking
To the six kids you raised, you'd just
Move with the changes
And never complain or quit trying
Now I'm looking in my momma's eyes
I don't know how we will ever get by
Now we're drifting in place
In our groundless state
There's no hope to contain all of this
Limitless pain
Well you showed us all how to smile
Now I'm looking in my momma's eyes
I don't know how we will ever get by
Yeah, but you taught me with your whole life
I'm trying so hard
I'm trying so hard to remember how to get by
