I saw Grandpa
Last night in my dream
Through my happy foolish tears
He never looked so young
He never looked so clear
And through the windows of my soul
Staring down the troubles
Craving control
He spoke in a voice
I recall
From so long ago
He said
Hold on to happiness
Smell the roses along the way
Dig deep down for the best
Move forward and dream on
Learn from your past mistakes
Accept and find forgiveness
'Cause all you'll do is choke with
Yesterday's Rope
Yeah, I got a scar or two
From a world of toxic lies
Have I chosen wisely
Have I wasted time
I meant to say I'm sorry
I meant to say I love you
I meant to fly that kite
Out into the sky of blue
Hold on to happiness
Smell the roses along the way
Dig deep down for the best
Move forward and dream on
Learn from your past mistakes
Accept and find forgiveness
'Cause all you'll do is choke with
Yesterday's Rope
Hold on to happiness
Smell the roses along the way
Dig deep down for the best
Move forward and dream on
Learn from your past mistakes
Accept and find forgiveness
'Cause all you'll do is choke with
Yesterday's Rope
