My Grandfather - Lior

My Grandfather-Lior.mp3
[00:01.13]When I was born my grandfather [00:06.04...
[00:01.13]When I was born my grandfather
[00:06.04]held me in his warm hands
[00:10.47]And it seems though his eyes are teary
[00:14.75]But it’s hard to tell from an old photograph
[00:20.21]While my brother and sister danced
[00:24.42]At the feet of his tired and weathered frame
[00:30.21]He said there’s a light to this boy I’ve rarely seen
[00:36.43]And there he gave me my name
[00:41.85]Well my grandfather was a sniper
[00:47.13]In the Red Army
[00:52.05]He never knew brothers in arms
[00:56.19]From on both side stood enemy
[01:00.57]Will the cold unbroken will to survive
[01:06.48]His steady hand took care
[01:10.87]And he drank just enough to keep himself warm
[01:15.36]For he never spoke his true name
[01:30.55]When I was a boy the summer were out
[01:35.03]He would take me down to the sea
[01:39.81]And standing on the water’s edge
[01:42.45]And watch me go crazy
[01:44.45]As the gentle waves rolled in
[01:49.24]Looking back I wonder how he must have felt
[01:54.25]Watching me running so free
[01:58.78]All the years in his life he wished he could forget
[02:03.39]Did he look at the world through me?
[02:18.31]When I was a man I flew across the Ocean
[02:22.85]When I heard he needed care
[02:27.70]I listened as he spoke of his turbulent life
[02:32.33]From his ordinary chair
[02:37.10]And he ended by saying
[02:39.64]“oh, I’ve had enough
[02:42.23]The time has come for me to go
[02:46.82]I have only one wish
[02:48.88]That is a left in me
[02:51.55]To be taken peacefully”
[03:07.30]Just before I was due to marry
[03:11.43]I heard he could not walk anymore
[03:16.14]It was then he gave up fight
[03:18.71]I’ve say goodbye
[03:21.19]Almost one year before
[03:25.90]And I’ll never forget something he told me
[03:32.64]He said“its a cruel world but you must live without fear”
[03:39.14]Well I sure do miss my grandfather
[03:43.83]He’s the reason why I’m here
