Collin Raye ~ Love Me~
I read a note my Grandma wrote
Back in 1923
Grandpa kept it in his coat
And he showed it once to me
He said
Boy you might not understand, but a long long time ago
Grandma's daddy didn't like me none
And I loved your Grandma so
We had this crazy plan to meet
And run away together
Get married in the first towm we come to and live forever
But nailed to the tree where we supposed to meet instead
I found this letter
And this is what it said:
Chorus:
If you get there before I do
Don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores are through
I don't know how long I'll be
But i'm not gonna let you down
Darling wait and see
And between now and then
Until I see you again
I'll be loving you . . .
Love, Me
Verse 2:
I read those words just hours
Before my Grandma passed away
In the doorway of a church
Where me and Grandpa stopped to pray
I know I never seen him cry
In all my fifteen years
But as he said those words to her
His eyes filled up with tears
Chorus:
If you get there before I do
Don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores are through
I don't know how long I'll be
But i'm not gonna let you down
Darling wait and see
And between now and then
Until I see you again
I'll be loving you . . .
Love, Me
Breakdown:
And between now and then
Until I see you again
I'll be loving you . . .
Love, Me
This is such a sad and beautiful song...really love the lyrics...heard it on class 95...really sad..
blaque stepped into the dark at 10:45 AM!
me
I stare up at the pure white ceiling
fans whirring softly
A deathly silence in the room
Fear grips me by the throat
As I watch Death slowly glide
My wrinkled hand grips the bedsheet
As I begin a silent litany of prayer
He glides past the sleeping child
in the opposite bed
past the lady gazing listlessly towards the window
I struggle to breathe
Strange wheezing noises
The demons within me rage
Wreaking havoc
As my feeble heart sputters and chokes
My eyes close in pain
Flying open
In shocked remembrance
To see
His dark hand reach for me
