THE LAST TIME I SAW GRAND PA

The last time I saw grand pa was sixty years agp
Palmdale, California and I was four years old
He was stooped and withered
A worn-out little man. I remember him the best I can

I swear I saw my grand pa in Daddy’s barn just now
Out behind the garden, feeding our old milk cow
He was stooped and withered,
A worn-out little man. Something I will try to understand

But Daddy was always a young man. Younger than his age
Who am I to notice, my daddy’s turning gray?
If I look in the mirror, will I see my daddy now?
Have I failed to notice what’s come to pass, somehow?
Will I be stooped and withered, a worn out little man?
Or, will I be remembered as I am?

But Daddy was always a young man. Younger than his age
Who am I to notice, my daddy’s turning gray?

Wonderful and melancholic - and I think everybody can relate to this superb lyric. Regards, Steffen
