Song Description

Poignant song about the loss of a beloved grandparent

Lyrics

The rocking chair stands empty now
The old quilt lies tattered on the shelf
Sometimes I think the ghost of you
Still sits there rocking

And if you were still sitting there
What are the words of wisdom you would share
And as the days pass into years
I still miss you
Here

Where did you go?
I want you to know
I'll never forget, the way you'd hold me and
I'll never forget the things you'd show me and
I'll never forget your hands so old


The rocking chair stands empty now
I've wrapped the old quilt around myself
Can I approach the love you held
If I were to sit here, rocking

Can you know the love I felt
And all the times I needed your help
When will I grow enough
To pass it on

Where did you go?
I want you to know
I'll never forget, the way you'd hold me and
I'll never forget the things you'd show me and
I'll never forget your hands so old
