Love Letters |
| I read a note my grandma wrote back in 1923 |
| Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me |
| He said, now son, you might not understand |
| But a long, long time ago |
| Grandma’s daddy didn’t like me none |
| But I loved your grandma so |
| We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together |
| Get married in the first town we came to and live forever |
| But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet, instead |
| I found this letter, and this is what it said |
| If you get there before I do, don’t give up on me |
| I’ll meet you when my chores are through |
| I don’t know how long I’ll be |
| But I’m not gonna let you down, darling wait and see |
| 'Cuz between now and then till I see you again |
| I’ll be loving you |
| Love, me |
| I read these words just hours before |
| My grandma passed away |
| In the doorway of the church where me and grandpa |
| Stopped to pray |
| I know I’d never seen him cry, in all my fifteen years |
| But as he said these words to her |
| His eyes filled up with tears: |
| (Repeat chorus 2x) |
