Lyrics
I was born to a name
My father gave me
Held in the arms
Of a mother to keep
Life had begun
My future was calling
As I crawled on the grass
That grew beneath my feet
Seven years on
And I was a young boy
With dimples so deep
They could hold in the sea
Laughed all day long
My bones they grew stronger
As I played on the grass
That grew beneath my feet
At 21 years I was a young man
Ready to take on the world
Time went by so fast
Time went by in a flash
It wasn't to long
Before I got married
I fell in love
With the girl of my dreams
Children they came
And we were a family
And they crawled on the grass
That grew beneath our feet
Many years on
I am an old man
ready to take on the world
Time went by so fast
Time went by in a flash
Life still goes on
Now your with out me
And the song that I sing
Is of my history
Don't you be sad
cause my spirits flying
Not under the grass
That grows beneath your feet
Under the grass
Is not where I sleep
