My soul is weary ‘cause my heart
does mourn
for granddaddy, my most dearly
beloved.
I feel as if it’s been ripped out
and torn
because he lies still like he never
was.
I will lay his heart right next
to mine
so that where his leads mine will
follow.
I hate the fact that we ran out of
time
for now my soul is a friend of
sorrow.
My heart once beat from the love he
had shown
unconditionally, no strings
attached.
But now my heart has been left so
alone
because no one compares, there is
no match.
More days shall pass when my heart
beats sadly
‘Cause my heart will beat, but not granddaddy's.
