Grandmother S Name lyrics

I`ve got my grandmother`s name, but she don`t remember who I am

He can`t sleep in the bed, `cause every time she wakes him up:
`What time is it? What time?`
And she is not sleeping yet, `cause she`s afraid she might forget
To wake up

Is it morning? Is it night?
She don`t know, can`t remember which is dark and which is light
Is this the end of life?
She don`t know, can`t remember if she`s young or if she`s old

I`ve got my grandmother`s name, but she don`t remember who I am

She used to live by his clock
A meal, a wash, his Sunday walk
A tick and tock
Now she`s so confused
And he says, `what is wrong with you,
anyway?`

And she don`t like to ask,
oh, but she don`t know what time it is or what day just passed
And she don`t like to say
But she don`t know how to get her clothes on right today

Memory slipping through her hands
Thoughts and dreams in quicksand
And she cries again
Dying a little by a lot
Can`t hold on to what she`s got
Though she tries again

And she don`t look in my eyes
But she will try to make me think that she is fine
She`s more and more upset
And I think she knows I`ve got a name she should not forget.

I`ve got my grandmother`s name, but she don`t remember who I am
I`ve got my grandmother`s name, but she don`t remember who I am
Loved her since I was a kid, but she don`t remember who she is
