"Even traditionally sentimental-type songs such as this are distinguished by sensitive lyrics."
My little girl and I lost mama just three years ago And now that she is older there are things she wants to know She said please daddy tell me bout my mother cause I miss her I said get pen and paper and I'll help you draw her picture.
I said first draw a heart so big there's room for little else Then write a million for the things that she denied herself Draw a rose the kind of which there'll never be another And when you'll finish you will have a picture of your mother.

If you want to make the picture even more complete You could draw a little cottage draw it nice and neat Draw a bright and shining sun up in the sky above But then again I guess it's pretty hard to draw my love.
So draw a heart so big that there is room for little else Then write a million for the things that she denied herself Draw a rose the kind of which there'll never be another And when you'll finish you will have a picture of your mother...
