LYRICS:
I loved to go to grandma's house
When I was very small
Those big old empty rooms upstairs
Always seemed so tall
I'd play up there without a care
With just one chair that's all

Imagination was my friend
I'd gladly play alone
I'd be a pirate captain
Or a king upon a throne
Then I'd be a wizard
Who'd turn things into stone

With grandpa in his grave
Grandma lived alone
Children grown and married
Every bird had flown

My mother's voice would end my play
Calling from below
I'd grumble and complain out loud
But then I'd slowly go
Down into the furnished rooms
With coal fires all aglow

Lemonade and chocolate cake
Would suddenly appear
Grandma with a smile would say
Here you are my dear
I'd smile right back and thank her
Then make it disappear

With grandpa in his grave
Grandma lived alone
Children grown and married
Every bird had flown

Soon it would be time to leave
And we would kiss goodbye
Grandma would stand by the door
A tear within her eye
I'd turn and wave and she'd wave back
Then give a gentle sigh

With grandpa in his grave
Grandma lived alone
Children grown and married
Every bird had flown
