I Miss You, Grandma

Intro

(Oh... grandma)

Soft light in the kitchen... gone now

Verse

Woke up this mornin', coffee on the stove

Your chair sittin' empty, dust on the globe

Two years since the doctor said it's spread too far

Lung cancer took you, left this big scar

I see your smile in the old family frames

Hands rough from work, callin' my name

David, come sit, let's talk 'til the dawn

Now the house feels wrong, yeah, it's all gone

Chorus

I miss you, grandma, every single day

That ache in my chest won't fade away

Coughin' in the night, I hear it still

Your breath gettin' short on that last hill

Oh, why'd you have to go? (go, go)

Leavin' me here, hurtin' so slow

I miss you, grandma... (grandma)

Miss you so much, don't you know?

Verse

Hospital bedsheets, smell of that room

Your eyes gettin' dim in the afternoon

Held your hand tight, whispered goodbye

Prayed for a miracle, but you had to fly

Thanksgiving tables without your laugh

Pumpkin pie tastin' flat on my behalf

David Johnson, your boy, standin' tall

But inside I'm breakin', watchin' seasons fall

Chorus

I miss you, grandma, every single day

That ache in my chest won't fade away

Coughin' in the night, I hear it still

Your breath gettin' short on that last hill

Oh, why'd you have to go? (go, go)

Leavin' me here, hurtin' so slow

I miss you, grandma... (grandma)

Miss you so much, don't you know?

Bridge

Two years gone by, calendar flips

But the pain hangs heavy, won't let it slip

Wish I could call, hear your voice again

Tell you I love you, my old friend

(Oh... oh...)

Chorus

I miss you, grandma, every single day (every day)

That ache in my chest won't fade away (fade away)

Coughin' in the night, I hear it still

Your breath gettin' short on that last hill

Oh, why'd you have to go? (go, go, go)

Leavin' me here, hurtin' so slow

I miss you, grandma... (grandma, grandma)

Miss you so much... don't you know?

Outro

(Oh... grandma...)

Gone now... but I miss you...

(Miss you...)
