[Verse 1]
I remember every moment with Emma
Her little boots kickin' up that dust
She'd grab my hand, say "Come on, Grandpa"
Like she already knew I'd trust
Sidewalk chalk all over the driveway
Purple flowers in her hair
She'd laugh so hard the birds got quiet
Like the whole world stopped to stare
[Chorus]
Every moment with Emma
Plays back in my mind
Like a slow-dance Sunday
Two steps out of time
I hold on to the giggles
To the way her eyes would shine
Every moment with Emma
Keeps my old heart feelin' fine
[Verse 2]
I miss the time I spent with Granny
Apron on, that crooked smile
Shellin' peas out on the back porch
Talkin' life for a little while
Her old clock tickin' in the kitchen
Coffee cups stained by the years
She'd pat my knee when I got quiet
Say, "It's okay to spill your fears"
[Chorus]
Every moment with Emma
Plays back in my mind
Like a slow-dance Sunday
Two steps out of time
And the stories from my Granny
Wrap around me when I cry
Every moment that we had
Keeps this lonesome day alive
[Bridge]
Time flies by so quickly
Like a truck on an open road
But their love still rides here with me
In every wrinkle, every joke
So I sing these names out softly
Let the memories sway and swing
Emma's laugh, my Granny's wisdom
Live in every word I sing
[Chorus]
Every moment with Emma
Plays back in my mind
Like a slow-dance Sunday
Two steps out of time
And the time I spent with Granny
Still sits warm in every line
Every moment that I treasure
Keeps my old heart feelin' fine
