Grandma's a Stranger 歌词

Grandma's a stranger, smilin' inside Holding her own as her old sense of pride lingers on, lingers on Changing directions, changing these memories of crimes and crazy dreams Piled up in front of me Ice cream never erases the heat of her smile Grandma's a stranger, a taste I recall A warm intuition, to shine through the wall wrapped around it all Never protecting the fall Hot silent summers, backyard adventures, a world swept away by tomorrow today And these games I play, to cover the distance I've made Ice cream never erases the heat of her smile Up ahead is a place Where the future I see is but one generation away Up ahead is a face of a queen, in-between, sight unseen Grandma's a stranger, a wish gone away A misty encounter, questions surround her As children obey whatever tradition might say Ice cream never erases the heat of her smile Ice cream never erases the heat of her smile
