Story Behind The Song

when i realized my grand mother couldn't remember any one it really broke my heart and gave me this inspiration

Song Description

Song about my family and the connections that bind

Lyrics

My Story
When I was youngster up in diapers
Mama worked her fingers to the bone
And whenever anyone would ask her why
I would be the reason she'd disclose
So tell me mama why is it you love me so
And what did I do to deserve
All of your love and your affection
And she said boy don't be absurd And she said

Don't you know you're my story?
The reason why I go on
If I somehow lost my way home
It would be you who tells the world my story
You're my story

She said you'll see to the ending of my story
And you I entrust my dignity
And if you ask anyone in this family
You will see they feel the same way as me
And so the next time I went to see grandma
I had to ask the question's once again
Why is it you care so much for me?
With a love that seems to have no end
And she said

Don't you know you're my story?
The reason why I go on
When I'm far gone and forgotten
It will be you who tells the world my story
You're my story

So now I'm sitting crossed her at the table
And I gently place her hands in mine
And she looks at my face with wonder
Cause my features she no longer recognize
And she says why is it you seem to care so much for me
And what did I do to deserve
All of your time and you attention
And I said grandma let me try to find the words and I said

Let me tell you my story
The story of how I came on
When I first came to this place
It was you who taught to me my story
You're my story
