Cântăre Grandfathers song

Grandfather's Song



dearest old friend

gone away with the wind

on a morning in sunny july

when it suddenly came

it was calling your name

and you left without telling us why



but still you will find

the ones you left behind

will not forget you my friend

oh we all understand

you just never liked saying goodbye



well I guess that I knew

you were just passing through

like the billowing clouds in the sky

now your ship has come in

and your voyage begins

and I'm trying to learn not to cry



you're sailing away

but I believe that some day

I will see you again

becuase I know you're my freind

and you never liked saying goodbye
