Grandsons Songtext
von Yusuf Islam

Wish I could watch them jumping round
Calling names
Kicking cans and playing tag
Hiding every place
Wish I could see them now
And even join in their games
How different life would be

But I′ve got no time for silly chitter chatter
I'm on my way
′Cause while my blood's still warm
And I'm not getting better
Time′s passing away

Because I′ve got a thing about seeing my grandson grow old


Wish I could buy them toys
Rubber balls and trains
Watch them see how tall they grow
Bigger day by day
Oh I want nothing more
Than to see them laugh and play
Life would be so different then

But I've got no time for silly chitter chatter
I′m on my way
'Cause while my blood′s still warm
And my mind doesn't matter
I′m going to pray

Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow old

But we got no time for silly chitter chatter
I'm on my way
′Cause while my blood′s still warm
And my mind doesn't matter
I′m hoping to stay

Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow old
