Vertaling van: Lucie Silvas - Opa
Used to spend hours in the chair with grandpa
He always told me a story
Or we went to watch the waves together
And the people all knew grandpa
Yes, I remember how we could keep smiling
At a dog wich was playing there on the beach
And that just went barking to the waves
Or wanted to fight with a blown away newspaper
And so we often walked without saying anything
A long way very pleasant hand in hand
And then I looked behind me and saw my little feet
Next to my grandfather's big steps in the sand
But now I walk on my own
Cause my grandfather does not join me
And I bring my little tears to that big sea
I still see my grandfather lying
Like a silent white doll
Grandpa closed his eyes forever
And he'll never lifts up them again
But now I walk on my own
'Cause my grandfather does not join me anymore
And I bring my little tears to that big sea
I still see my grandfather lying
Like a silent white doll
Grandpa closed his eyes forever
And he'll never lift up them again A thousand waves overflowed Grandpa's steps
Only my own feet are there
But I still know his stories and his jokes
And I still remember what I did with him
And in this way grandpa is staying alive a little bit
'Cause memories you'll never lose
And he has given me so much good advice
S0 he just staying my grandfather forever.
And so we often walked without saying anything
A long way very pleasant hand in hand
And then I looked behind me and saw my little feet
Next to my grandfather's big steps in the sand
But now I walk on my own
'Cause my grandfather does not join me anymore
And I bring my little tears to that big sea
I still see my grandfather lying
Like a silent white doll
Grandpa closed his eyes forever
And he'll never lift up them again
