Nora

I went to see my grandma today
I learned the difference between
Living and alive
Wall to wall roaches in a two by four infested room
Lying there in pain
Praying for the lord to take her
Nora — I hope it wont be too long for you
Nora — all these years youve been so strong
Nora — I hope you dont mind if I call you nora
I love you
After leaving her, I turned my life around
I see new life differently
Through the vision of the old
Oh, material things dont mean that muich to me
I guess I learned that Im just
Glad to be alive and healthy
Nora — all this time that you have known me Nora — it took your whole life just to show me Nora — how we take some things for granted
Nora, nora, nora, I love you
And though I know there wasnt long to go Time was something that we shared
And when you died I didnt cry for long
Cause I believe Ill see you again
Nora — Ill see you on the other side
Nora — Ill be the one with swallowed pride
Nora — are you sure you dont mind if I call you
Nora, nora, I love you, I love you, I love you
I love … you
