Let me tell you a story,
Of a land so close to here,
And time not that long ago,
Why it was just last year.
Let me tell you about a family,
With problems like them all,
But as long as they had thier gran,
Then none of them could fall.
Thier gran had always been there,
Right from the start,
Thier gran had always been there,
And will always be in their hearts.
But see thier gran was the greatest,
And no matter what anyone did,
They can never take that wonderful women,
Away from those kids.
For she loved them so much,
And told them so everyday,
And they loved her too,
In every single way.
But this perfect person got so very ill,
And she went to the doctor to tell,
That she wasnt well.
The doctor said it was cancer,
A diesise known as killing.
So that sick lady stayed in hospital,
And her family came so willing,
Down from Yorkshire to London,
Every weekend to come and see thier gran,
They tried their best to help her,
And said they'd do all they can.
But their isnt much you can do for someone,
who has death just around the corner,
Except spend every moment you can loveing her,
And know that your going to mourn her.
Love in that family was so strong and so true,
How often it was heard said,
'Gran we love you'
and followed thereafter with a,
'My dear granchildren i love you too'.
So six mounths later that lady died,
And so the children gained a hole inside,
A hole that only time can heal,
A hole that can cause pain unreal,
Teardrops were so commen in those siblings four,
Because everyday they missed there granny,
Just a little more and more.
So now the task of greiving has nearly run its race,
And everyone starts getting on with thier lives,
Still knowing that no one can take thier grans place.
