Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Last year I turned forty and I didn't miss a beat Now, here it is a year later and I'm down on my knees Wondering if I've failed at what I'm supposed to be And I'd sure like to know what he'd think of me He was a colonel in the army in the second world war Was a good American soldier, he knew what he was fighting for He made it safely home, but he died way too soon Before he had a chance to see what his kids and theirs would do He looks straight at me while he's hanging on the wall Always a man of few words, that's my grandpa And even though I never knew him, I believe he is my friend And I'd give my Gibson to shake his hand and learn how to live Now fifty years have passed, he still looks the same Sitting at his desk in that wooden picture frame And sometimes late at night I look up at him And ask a few questions that are on my mind again He looks straight at me while he's hanging on the wall Always a man of few words, that's my grandpa And even though I never knew him, I know he is my friend And I'd give my Gibson to shake his hand and learn how to live And I'd give my Gibson to shake his hand and learn how to live
