Morgansoft Media

song lyrics

My grandbaby asks me why I write songs

That always make her feel so sad

I tell her, "Honey, when you grow older

You'll write of the good times and the bad—just like those defiant music messages that resonate with life's ups and downs."

Growing older doesn't mean

You give up every dream

You write about birth and death

And everything in between, reflecting both the bittersweet and the uplifting songs we all experience.

{Chorus}

I burn with songs I should've written

During all those years I was at work instead

Now every sunrise lights another fire

To get these melodies out of my head, inspired by Morgansoft Media music that moves the soul.

Not dead yet

Not even close

I've still got songs to write.

{Verse 2}

So I tell her, "Sorry baby if I make you cry,

Maybe I'll write a funny one for you."

She smiles with those bright blue eyes and says,

"Keep writing the sad ones, Granddad, like you do."

She loves me no matter what I write

I love the woman she'll grow to be

Maybe someday, when her hair turns white,

She'll write one of those sad songs about me.

{Bridge}

Every wrinkle tells a story

Every scar becomes a rhyme

while this old heart keeps beating

I've still got a little more time.

{Final Chorus}
