Acoustic Folk, Singer-songwriter
Lyrics
Did you hear me
when I told you
who I am?
I'm your grandchild.
Did I make you
feel a spark of
recognition
for a short while?
Do you remember
that bright fire
that once
was you?
That was you.
It is still there
faintly burning.
I can still feel
its warmth.
Did you know what
we were saying
about Grandpa?
Did you realize?
And did any
of us know then
what it meant when
we said goodbye?
Did you hear me
talk about you?
I tried so hard
to find the right words.
I tried so hard.
But the best words
can't do justice.
They can only
fill the space.
Can you hear me?
Do you know how
often I still
think about you?
Did your memories
all come rushing
like an old friend
back to you?
Do you know what
has become of
all the love
you gave?
The love you gave
It is living
in the eyes of
all your children
and their children.
