Conversation with My Grandfather
I felt you watching me today
Looking down from wherever you are
I wonder what it's like
That land beyond the stars
I know that you miss me
And all we used to do
Just know the feeling's mutual
Cause, Old Man, I miss you, too
I wish I could see what it's like
Just how you spend your days
Do you sit on a riverbank, fishing?
On the farm, loading up some hay?
I bet Granny's there with you
Telling you to wash your hands
Be sure to tell her I love her
And try to take her out and dance
Just so you know, I'm ok
Working hard and doing good
I try to do just like you taught me
The things I know I should
Some days are hard
Others not so bad
I just try to think
Of all the good times that we had
Just wanted to say happy birthday
In your land above the clouds
And until we meet again, Old Man
I love you and hope I make you proud
