Sometimes Songtext
von The Roys

It started with a simple missed appointment
None of us thought too much of it
Till she left the stove on all night long
But she was sure she turned it off
The doctor gave us the diagnosis
Said there′ll come a day when she won't know us
You need to be prepared
She won′t be here when she's lost in her own little world

Yeah sometimes she's running in an open field of clover
Carefree in a sundress underneath the pale blue moon
Talking to her daddy, picking daisies for her mama
Now she′s reliving her childhood in the nursing home
In her mind she′s still there sometimes


The lines on her face show her journey
The state she's in won′t define her story
For eighty-nine years
Through laughter and tears
She's been the rock her family leans on

Now sometimes she′s skipping rocks on the Caney River
Catching some fireflies in her grandma's mason jar
Singing with the choir in church on Sunday morning
Now she′s reliving her childhood in the nursing home
In her mind she's still there sometimes

Yeah sometimes she's running in an open field of clover
Carefree in a sundress underneath the pale blue moon
Singing with the choir in church on Sunday morning
Now she′s reliving her childhood in the nursing home
In her mind she′s still there
In her mind she's still there sometimes

Started with a simple missed appointment
None of us thought too much of it
