They had to write the other off
And marry the right people,
Sixty years ago.
But then, the chains fell to the ground
And ran to the chapel,
The nearest they found.
And I was there to see her happier
Than she had ever been.
They sought the eyes of each other
As if they were seventeen.
I wanna hold you tight, when you are falling,
I wanna warm your heart, when it is cooling.
How foolish we have been, for so many years...
Although our time is short, we'll make the most of it, I'm sure.
Since then, grandma's always fine,
I love to know she's dancing
Every Saturday night.
And I was there to see her happier,
Than she had ever been.
They sought the eyes of each other,
As if they were seventeen.
I wanna hold you tight, when you are falling,
I wanna warm your heart, when it is cooling.
How foolish we have been, for so many years...
Although our time is short, we'll make the most of it, I'm sure.
I wanna hold you tight, when you are falling,
I wanna warm your heart, when it is cooling.
How foolish we have been, for so many years...
Although our time is short, we'll make the most of it, I'm sure.
