Yusuf / Cat Stevens - The Laughing Apple

Grandsons

Wish I could watch them jumping 'round
Calling names
Kicking cans
And playing tag
Hiding in every place
Wish I could see them now
And even join in their games

How different life would be
But I've got no time
For silly chitty chatter
I'm on my way
'Cause while my body's still on and I'm not getting better
Time's passing away
'Cause I got a thing about seeing my grandson grow

Wish I could buy them toys
Rubber balls and trains
Watch and see how tall they grow
Bigger day by day
Oh I want nothing more
Than to see them laugh and play

Life would be so different then
But I got no time
For silly chitty chatter
I'm on my way
'Cause while my body's still on and my mind doesn't matter
I'm going to pray
'Cause I got a thing about seeing my grandson grow

Have we got no time
For silly chitty chatter?
I'm on my way
'Cause while my body's still on and my mind doesn't matter
I'm hoping to stay
'Cause I got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
