Doyle Lawson – More Behind The Picture Than The Wall lyrics

I was cleaning out the closet, throwin' things away
I'd forgotten all about it, when I looked, there it lay
I picked it up, found a frame and hung it in the hall
But there's more behind this picture than the wall

It was taken on that trip we took back in '92
Casey sure didn't look like me, Lord, he looked like you
We had no way of knowing then, just how the cards would fall
Yeah, there's more behind this picture than the wall

Casey joined the army, they sent him far from home
Lori moved to Hollywood, pre-tending she was grown
You and I held on and tried, to make sense of it all
There's more behind this picture than the wall

Too soon our little family, was scattered to the wind
You fell out of love with me, wouldn't fall back in
I was sleepin' by myself the night I got that call
Yeah, there's more behind this picture than the wall

Casey died a hero, that's what the Chaplin said
We couldn't find sweet glory, our doubt ain't over yet
You and I still tortured by the memories we recall
There's more behind this picture than the wall

Four happy lovin' faces, back then we had it all
But there's more behind this picture than the wall
Than the wal
