Wish I could watch them jumping round, calling names Kicking cans and playing tag, hide in every place Wish I could see them now, and even join in their games
How different life would be, but I´ve got no time for silly chitter-chatter I´m on my way That´s why my blood´s still warm and I´m not getting better Time´s passing away Because I´ve got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
Wish I could buy them toys, rubber balls and trains Watch them see how tall they grow, make it day by day Oh, I want nothing more, than to see them laugh and play Life would be so different then, but I´ve got no time for silly chitter-chatter I´m on my way
´Cause while my blood´s still warm and my mind doesn´t matter I´m going to pray Because I´ve got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
That we got no time for silly chitter-chatter I´m on my way ´Cause while my blood´s still warm and my mind doesn´t matter I´m hoping to stay Because I´ve got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
