fav song. the lyrics r so touching...sob sob
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 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 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 till 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 a church
Where me and grandpa stopped to pray
I know I never seen him cry in all my fifteen years
But as he said those words to her
His eyes filled up with tears*
Between now and then till I see you again
I'll be loving you... love me
