Grandfather tell me a story
Make it as long as you want
For I will sit here, year after year
And unfold the memories recalled
Don’t tell me you don’t remember
I see the truth in your eyes
And I will sit fast, until your last
Tall tales and legends are told
For I know a story and you know a story
So let’s share some stories tonight
There’s none better told than the memories of old
Cause memories are worth more than gold
I was a young one like you were
But my time was different than yours
But I will sit down, while you speak a loud
And witness the world through your words
Grandfather you may be gone now
But the light has not gone from the skies
So now is the time, to share song and rhyme
And make me see life through your eyes
For I know a story and you know a story
So let’s share some stories tonight
There’s none better told than the memories of old
Cause memories are worth more than gold
For I know a story and you know a story
So let’s share some stories tonight
There’s none better told than the memories of old
Cause memories are worth more tonite
Hmmmm.mmmm
