Lyrics for Song: Grandmother Waits For You
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Handsome Family
Grandmother waits for you with a pair of new shoes
in a land where the leaves never brown.
The hills are scattered with empty wheelchairs and
hearing aids thrown to the ground.
The long night is over.
The shadow has passed and farewells forever are done.
No more fear, no more cold.
Earth and sky painted gold.
In the land where we'll never grow old.
The peacock and snake, the wolf and the lamb,
all creatures find peace in time.
These perfect white shores are littered with jewels
falling like rain from the sky.
Mother and baby walk into the waves no longer fearing the tides.
