lyrics

I'm told my grandma died
before I was born
and Grandpa just got tired
and moved farther north

from his living room
he'd stare out at the lake
his weather radio
reporting knots and the waves

with every approaching storm
he'd watch across the bay
he thought of what he'd lost
and all he'd never say

when he left that shore
he left words for me
"life is just too short" he said
"don't try to make them see"
