[Intro]
On the winds of Hendersonville, I hear her laughter still,
A whisper in the pines, brings my heart to a standstill.
[Verse 1]
Seven years, a little boy, the world so big and bright,
But every shadowed corner holds a memory in the night.
She’d sing to me in soft tones, under the old oak tree,
With every word, she built me up, she was my wildest dream.
[Pre-Chorus]
The stories that she told me, laughter in her eyes,
I can’t believe she’s gone, oh how time flies.
[Chorus]
Oh Granny, how I miss you,
The kitchen filled with love, the smell of something new.
If I could hold your hand, and say goodbye that day,
I’d tell you just how much you mean in every way.
[Verse 2]
In the heart of Hendersonville, where memories run deep,
I hear your voice in every breeze, as I lay down to sleep.
I recall those summer nights, fireflies glowing bright,
You’d pull me in close, kissed me goodnight.
[Pre-Chorus]
Time has changed the world around, but it’s made me see,
The strength you left behind, it still lives on in me.
[Chorus]
Oh Granny, how I miss you,
The kitchen filled with love, the smell of something new.
If I could hold your hand, and say goodbye that day,
I’d tell you just how much you mean in every way.
[Bridge]
And when the autumn leaves fall, like whispers in my ear,
I close my eyes, I feel you near, as if you’re still right here.
Between the stars in jasper skies, and the fields of golden grain,
I will hold you in my heart, until we meet again.
[Outro]
So here's to you, my sweet Mamaw, your love I can’t deny,
In Hendersonville, where the heavens touch the sky.
Though the years may come and go, your spirit will remain,
Forever in my heart, a love that won't wane.
