Lyrics
Why did you have to go
and leave me here
to remember the pain
that would circle
around my head
when you left me
oh
Grandpa why did you have to go
and leave me stranded here
on islands of false witnesses
of tomorrows dreams as they rise?
oh Grandpa
You made me what I am today
So don't you go so faraway
and leave me here, behind.
Oh Grandpa why?
Why did you have to...go
and leave me stranded here
on false memories of the past
when I used to
ride my bicycle around the block
and then i'd, I'd jump off and go for a walk,
and I'd have to make decisions of who I wanted to be.
So we went down to the fishing pond,
where grandpa would tie my string
and he'd tie my string...............
with love.
Grandpa why, did you have to go,
and leave me stranded alone?
