Love Me Lyrics

Love Me lyrics

I read a note my grandma wrote back in 1922

My Grandpa kept it in his coat and he showed it once to me

Said son you might not understand 

But a long, long time ago

Your grandma's daddy didn't like me none 

But I love 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

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

So between now and then ‘til I see you again

I'll be loving you, love me



I read those words just hours before my grandma past away

In the door way of a church

Where me and grandpa stopped to pray

although I'd never seen him cry in all my 15 years

as he said these words to her

His eyes filled up with tears



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

So between now and then ‘til I see you again

I'll be loving you, love me

I'll be loving you, love me
