Grandpa

used to spend hours in the chair with grandpa
He always told me a story
Or we went to watch the waves together
And the people all knew grandpa
 
Yes, I remember how we could keep smiling
For a dog that played there on the beach
And that just went to the waves barking
Or wanted to fight with a blown away newspaper
 
And so we often walked very long hand in hand, without saying long stops
and then I looked around and saw my little feet next to my grandfather's big steps in the sand
 
But now I walk on my own because my grandfather does not join me
And I'm bringing my little tears to that big sea
I still see my grandfather lying like a silent white doll
Grandpa closed his eyes forever and he never slaps them again
 
But now I walk on my own because my grandfather does not join me
And I'm bringing my little tears to that big sea
I still see my grandfather lying like a silent white doll
Grandpa closed his eyes forever and he never slaps them again
 
A thousand birds rave about Grandpa's steps
it is only my own feet standing there
But I still know his stories and his jokes
and I remember what I did with him
 
And that is how Grandpa kept living a bit because you never lost memories again
And he has given me so much advice, so he just keeps my grandfather forever.
 
And that is how we often walked hand in hand without saying long ends
and then I looked around and saw my little feet next to my grandfather's big steps in the sand
 
But now I walk on my own because my grandfather does not join me
And I'm bringing my little tears to that big sea
I still see my grandfather lying like a silent white doll
Grandpa closed his eyes forever and he never slaps them again
 
But now I walk on my own because my grandfather does not join me
And I'm bringing my little tears to that big sea
I still see my grandfather lying like a silent white doll
Grandpa closed his eyes forever and he never slaps them again
