Sitting with the dog
Trying to clear the fog
Of a memory of the last time
That I saw her face50 yrs of time
An accident would take my mind
And shortly after take the wife
Away from meEverybody knows
Memories will keep you alive
Some of them can't be erased
But if I remember one today
Let it be of GraceThe catskills are all frozen
Playing dominoes and I can
Hear a voice reminding me
That I'm her heroI can find myself able from
The chair across the table
To remember that it wasn't
Always emptyEverybody knows
Memories will keep you alive
And some just won't go away
But if there's a memory left of Grace
Let it come back todayAnd I see her beside me
As the grandkids they remind me
She's in the cemetery
That we played in as kidsThey just think I'm crazy
But the things she tells me lately
Are the only things
That I cannot forgetEverybody knows
Memories'll keep us alive
Some just can't be erased
But if I remember one today
Let it be of Grace
