Grandma

I always made sure I held her hand, Whenever we crossed the street.
She'd buy me ice cream from the ice cream man. ...I always thought that was neat.
She had dinner with us on Sunday. I stayed at her house through the summer.
She was the greatest of grandmas and man, I sure did love her.
And she said Grandpa was my guardian angel
And he was watchin' over me.
She talked to him when she would pray at night.
She said I was their favorite memory.
She was with me through my growing years. And at my graduation.
She chipped in to buy me a car For the grand occassion.
And I drove her to the beach that summer, So that she could see the ocean.
I said I bet Grandpa would've loved that. As she smiled to her grandson,
She said Grandpa was my guardian angel.
He was always with me.
And I could talk to him when I would pray at night.
Oh, we had such great memories.
She was laid to rest beside him. Last year, in the spring.
And I couldn't help but cry, When the choir began to sing.
I talk to her in prayer And send her all my love.
'Cause I know she and Grandpa are up there, Watchin' from above.
Yeah, now I've two guardian angels
Who are watchin' over me.
I feel their love when I lay down at night
And I'll always keep her in my memories.
Yeah, I'll always keep her in my memories.
