lyrics

Grandfather
Tell me how it used to be
Grandmother, make sure my face is clean
Time travelers,
You saw the fall of man
But stuck around to watch him get up again

you wanted it bad enough to last

Grandfather
let me try to ease your pain
give some relief to your aching frame
Grandmother
all the tears your eyes have held
all that joy wrapped up inside that fragile shell

you wanted it bad enough to last

you found romance in the moonlight
you found hope in the sun
you found more than enough when you had
when you had none

you found comfort in each other and the Family that you made
you found God's grace and miracles, in every passing day

you wanted it bad enough to last

there's static on the television
and wisdom in your hands
a seed becomes a tree
a tree becomes a seed again

you wanted it bad enough to last
