Lyrics
Martha stares at the clock on the wall
And hopes that someone might visit or call
Cuz it's been days since she's talked to anyone
And what's to do now the dishes are done?
Not knowing where to go or where to begin
She starts to wonder of a place she's never been
Martha's got a lot she'd really like to share
But no one listens no one seems to care
Talk to her not with her and that's how it goes
Never learning always turning away from all she knows
In Martha's world no one has to win
Just believe in a place she's never been
Martha breathes through the pictures she paints
And when she's there she's in line with all the saints
The greatest gift that a person can give
Is something of themselves that's helped them want to live
And Martha wouldn't ever suffer a sin
She's always thinking of a place she's never been
A place she's bever been
A place she's never been
A place she's never been
Martha knows on the first day of spring
What the beautiful weather will bring
Soon April's rain will yeild flowers in May
If only they would stay
If only she could stay
But as the dark clouds prepare to move in
She slips away to a place she's never been
