8 X 10

In the still and silent morning, that's when I miss you most Cardinals welcome in the sunrise, it sounds so sweet I'd spread it on my toast I put syrup on my cornbread. I like cheese on apple pie It's the way you always did it. I never thought to ask you why Lick your thumb to thread a needle. Thin to win when cutting cards Find that thing that you love doing. Then work hard, you work real hard Take the 3rd when singing duets. Take the 5th if you need to lie It's the way you always did it. I never thought to ask you why I miss your cool hand on my fever Your voice a long distance call Trying to remember every single lesson I got your picture on my wall 8 x 10 happy memories under glass inside a frame There's a candle lit beside you, your eyes dancing in the flame There you're staring at the camera with your Mona Lisa smile It's the way you always did it, I never thought to ask you why I miss your cool hand on my fever Your voice a long distance call Trying to remember every single blessing I got your picture on my wall
