Lyrics

Sit in the chair
Next to the bed; I need you near
Tell me something about your life
I'm so happy that you're here

It's been too long
Since I've seen you, grandson, Dear
Please don't leave me alone right now
I feel the end is near

Please turn the lights on for me
Let the colors set me free
And ease my pain comfortably
But please don't look at me

I wish I had
One more good day in my life, Dear
We'd take a stroll through Lakeside Park
And I'd tell you all my fears

Now take good care
Leave no regrets now don't you, Dear
Hold on! The pain has come
Turn away, but please stay near

And turn the lights on for me
Let the colors set me free
And ease my pain comfortably
But please don't look at me
Because I don't want you to see
What this disease has done to me
Just take my hand; I see the writing on the wall
See the rainbow of spinning lights upon the wall
Watch the rainbow of my life upon the wall

I wish you knew
Your grandfather, my Dear
Taken from us far too soon
But what a family he left here

Lend me your ear
Wish we had talked more like this dear
I will see you again someday
You know I've loved you all these years

And turn the lights on for me
Let the colors set me free
And ease my pain comfortably
But please don't look at me
Because I don't want you to see
What this disease has done to me
Just take my hand; I see the writing on the wall
See the rainbow of spinning lights upon the wall
Watch the rainbow of my life upon the wall

Promise me here
You'll always talk to me, my Dear
And I promise to hear all your prayers
Things are getting so unclear
Can you still understand me, my Dear
Can you please wipe away my tears
And turn the lights on
Turn the lights on
Turn the light on for me...

Please come near
Give me one last kiss, my dear
