I read a note my Grandma
Wrote back in 1923
Grandpa kept it in his coat
And he showed it once to
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
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
But I'm not gonna let you
Down
Darlin' 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 a church
Where me and Grandpa
Stopped to pray
I know I'd never seen him
Cry
In all my fifteen years
But as he said these
Words to her
His eyes filled 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
But I'm not gonna let you
Down
Darlin' wait and see
And between now and
Then 'til I see you again
I'll be loving you
Love me
Between now and then
'Til I see you again
I'll be loving you
Love me
