grandpa, tell us
again
please
how did it feel
when the airy breeze
touched your cheek
did it make you laugh
at it's reveilles
as it danced in the sky
played with the trees
grandpa, tell us
more
we promise
to study harder
if you mention the shore
with white cresting waves
and sailing ships
brimming with lure
did you feel it grandpa
the mist on the moor
grandpa, tell us
we implore
how did it feel
the dirt from the land
was it silky
maybe slippery
held in the hand
could you feel it grandpa
the sunshine in the sand
grandpa, tell us
again
really?
the wind could
make you sneeze
they knew
still we pay
for their antiquities
its okay
this glassy dome
but grandpa
whisper again
your place called
home
sweet home
yes, come closer
I'll tell you
again
they were magical
those days...
the meadows painted
with rainbow bouquets
hearing the raindrops
bounce on the quays
the rustle of the wheat
as it bends and sways
the stream trickled
a song, lively and gay
across the valley
and d
o
w
n to the bay
cities of people
until
that fateful day
gone
nothing left
except
these scars
marked
in a searing flash
and shaded memories
of home
sweet...
yes, come closer
forget the dome
I'll tell you
again
of home
sweet home...
