Little Richie |
Little Richie was the runt of the litter, given a thick hide by father and |
brothers |
Identified more with his sisters and mother |
Always felt a bit different from the others |
A loving marriage from the outside, but oh, how ferociously he’d hit her |
Richie stood by the bleach white bedside |
Ma' held his face in her hands while he cried: |
«Hush, now, precious lamb, everything will be alright |
I know how it looks but I swear he’s a good man |
Oh baby, God has a much bigger plan |
I have my family, I have my health and I’m quite content with that» |
How can you say this time that it will be alright? |
How can you still look in his eyes and see the love of your life? |
He works all things for good, in the end, it’s love that wins |
In the end, it is love |
In the end, it is love! |
(In) |
Love was his inclination |
Belief, his dearest passion |
A beautiful escape from resentment, fear of the next crushing blow |
(How can we know love when were never shown it?) |
He’d wait on his lonesome, for that blue hair in her station wagon |
(How can we know love when were never shown it?) |
Attending those Baptist services alone |
In the house of the Lord he found purpose and a home |
Richie stood on a chair, peeked over the pulpit, reminded himself and the |
beloved, not lacking in youthful wit |
This is what’s promised: he works all things for good, in the end, it’s love, |
that wins |
How are we to know how to love, when every attempt is met with the back of a |
hand? |
It would only be love to mend the damned, who never grew to knew compassion |
Just another unfortunate—beaten senseless by his old man |
How can you say this time that it will be alright? |
How can you still look in his eyes and see the love of your life? |
He works all things for good, in the end, it’s love that wins! |
(How can we know love when were never shown it?) |
An heirloom passed down before its day |
(How can we know love when were never shown it?) |
Legacy came violently to rip innocence away |
