My Grandparents' House
MY GRANDPARENTS HOUSE music & lyric / Trisha Gagnon
Verse 1
A child went walking, on a coal black night
All by herself, and stayed out of sight
Her parents told her, to stay at home
She didn't listen, and left alone
VERSE 2
It wasn't long 'till her parents, the police too
Went out searching, trying to find a clue
How their little girl had vanished, right out of sight
Then her Mom remembered, what she'd said that night
CHORUS 1
I miss my Grandpa and Nona so dear
We have biscuits and tea, oh I wish they were here
I know I'm only four years old
And I'm not suppose to go
But I know my way to my grandparents house
VERSE 3
Up through the stores, in the village square
She saw a little red flashlight, for sale there
But she had no money, and journeyed on
'Till the lights from the town, were all but gone
VERSE 4
The rain fell harder, and the night was black
She couldn't see the way, and wanted to go back
She felt a little bit scared, and all alone
Until her neighbour found her
And brought her safely home
CHORUS 2
I miss my Grandpa and Nona so dear
We have biscuits and tea, oh I wish they were here
I know I'm only four years old
And I'm not supposed to go
But I know my way to my grandparents house
VERSE 5
The door opened, and to her surprise
Stood her Nona and Grandpa
And tears filled her eyes
She said Mom and Daddy
I'll never more stray
And I'll always listen, to what you say
CHORUS 3
I miss my Grandpa and Nona so dear
We had biscuits and tea,oh I wish they were here
I'm no longer four years old
And I'll always miss them so
I know my way to my grandparents house
I'll see them then at my grandparents house
