W ish I could watch them jumpi ng round calling n ames
K icking cans and p laying tag h ide in every p lace
W ish I could s ee them now and e ven join in their g ames
H ow different l ife would be b ut I've got no time f or silly chitter-chatter
I'm on my w ay
That's why m y blood's still warm and I'm not getting better
Time's passing a way
Because I've g ot a thing about s eeing my grandson gro w
W ish I could b uy them toys r ubber balls and t rains
W atch them see how tall they grow m ake it day by d ay
O h I want nothing m ore than to s ee them laugh and p lay
L ife would be so d ifferent then but I've got no time for s illy chitter-chatter
I'm on my w ay
'Cause while m y blood's still warm and my m ind doesn't matter
I'm going to p ray
Because I've g ot a thing about s eeing my grandson gro w
That we g ot no time for s illy chitter-chatter
I'm on my w ay
'Cause while m y blood's still warm and my m ind doesn't matter
I'm hoping to st ay
Because I've g ot a thing about s eeing my grandson gro w
