Love, Me

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 din like me none, but I loved your grandma so
We had this crazy plan to meet, and run away together
Get married in the first town we came to and live forever
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet instead
I found this letter and this is what it said

*If you get there before I do, don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores all 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 till I see you again
I'll be loving you..love me

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 these words to her
His eyes filled up with tears

*If you get there before I do, don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores all 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 till I see you again
I'll be loving you..love me

Between now and then till I see you again
I'll be loving you... love me

I teared as I was listening to this song in the middle of the night. It's just so emotional...It just reminded me of my grandparents...they were so in love with each other then...

Still, happy chinese new year everyone =)
