Super nice lyrics!
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, “Boy, you might not understand, but a long, long time ago, Grandma’s daddy didn’t like me none, but I love 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 And between now and then Til I see you again
I’ll be loving you Love, Me.
I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away In the doorway of the church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray I know I’ve never seen him cry in all my fifteen years But as he said these words to her, his eyes fill up with tears
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 And between now and then Til I see you again
I’ll be loving you Love, Me.
