Saw it at dennis' site... then realised i've got the song... haha... blur me... Truly a great song... Love, Me

I read a note my grandma wrote back in 1923
Grandpa kept it in his coat and he showed it once to me
He said," Boy you might not understand, but a long long time ago
Grandma's daddy dint like me enough, but I loved your grandma so
We had this crazy plan to meet, and run away together
Get married in the first town we came to and live forever
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet instead
i found this letter and this is what it said

If you get there before I do, don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores are through, I don't know how long i'll be
But i'm not gonna let you down, Darling wait and see
And between now and then till I see you again
I'll be loving you..love me..."

I read those words just hours before my grandma passed away
In the doorway of a church where me and grandpa stopped to pray
I know I never seen him cry in all my fifteen years
But as he said these words to her
His eyes filled up with tears

And between now and then till I see you again
I'll be loving you... love me
