[Hook: Ceschi Ramos] I don't know just where you've gone But hope you're somewhere waiting for me [Intro: Time] I hide my face with these black sunglasses, where’d you go grandma, where’d you go grandma? [Verse 1: Time] Ain’t been long but it feels so long Feeling so selfish gotta be strong Sad you’re gone so I wrote this song I hope everyone will sing along We hid from you when we were kids Thought we were spies under the bridge Jumping out cabinets we would scare you Now every memory is an heirloom Used to help you make potato salad Singing church songs like power ballads You never had a nemesis You raised my dad you’re my genesis I can still smell the Denver mist Damn it feel good to reminisce I’m so grateful for what you gave me It was love and it helped make me Coffee and vanilla cake, that’s how we would celebrate You taught me forgiveness back when I was filled with hate Everything’s music, the world’s a canvas you said stay inspired So I’m trying to play the notes of the birds on the electric wires Time travel with my memories, teleport me to serenity Long island iced tea, that was grandma’s remedy She never met an enemy, a friend to her was a friend to me I remember at the diner, she’d give me quarters for centipede We used to run through the desert, digging for turquoise treasure You wanted to make a necklace from a thunderbird’s feather We used to play gin rummy, we used to place spite and malice We’d play until our hands were calloused sipping Sprite from a chalice Death is not an ending, it’s just a new beginning I know you’re with our ancestors in eternity swimming Life’s not short it’s infinite you get back what you put into it I've never been to heaven but thanks for showing me a glimpse of it [Hook: Ceschi Ramos] I don't know just where you've gone But hope you're somewhere waiting for me [Verse 2: Time] And I don’t need a time machine to remember watching Jordan While playing Break on Through To The Other Side on your organ We used to pick grapefruits from the tree, lemon and oranges all of them enormous Arizona sunset, sky like a peach, each cloud’s a fortress Every street lights a falling star, I’m making a wish on them all You used to drive around town in a teal green 55 Chevy car I'm on the farm, my eyes are like fireworks and fireflies Running through Kansas, in the land of truth is where the liar dies Memories are grapes, I’m making wine in my mind’s cellar I know I’ll see you again, no need for a fortune teller This is a time capsule, bury the song, bury the journal We spread your ashes in the garden, life is life, your life is eternal When you left I could taste the Jasmine on your breath We’re not really flesh, that’s why I don’t fear death Life’s not short it’s infinite you get back what you put into it I've never been to heaven but thanks for showing me a glimpse of it [Hook: Ceschi Ramos] I don't know just where you've gone But hope you're somewhere waiting for me
