Grandpa, Dear
The only time, the only time,
I really only shed a tear -
Was when I thought of you,
And how you’d disappear.
I never thought, I never thought,
That today would be the day –
When I’d hear the sad words,
That grandpa went away.
It broke my heart, it broke my heart,
When grandma said these parting words -
“See you in paradise.”
Tears flowed when I over-heard.
I have the hope, I have the hope,
That Grandpa, Love, is in Jah’s -
Loving, caring Mem’ry.
Angels sing Oo’s and Aah’s.
You always be, You’ll always be,
My darling, faithful Grandpa Dear -
I will always love you,
’Til my very last tear.
