Verse 1:    Intro:                             If you don’t get in the water you’re never gonna learn to swim                 He said a snake is just as scared of you as you are of it.                                                                    He could tell by the moon when the fish would bite   Seems there was nothing that he didn’t know                                                                                        and as a kid I believed ’cause Grandpa told me so. Verse 2: (Chords same as above.) He talked Daddy into letting me have my first car. I thought I was really something til Becky Thompson broke my heart. That first tast of love really did me in   Getting over her slow And I knew someday I would ’cause Grandpa told me so. Chorus: He said life is made for you to live           the best love is the love that you give.                          There’ll be times when you wanna hold on but you gotta let go. And I live by those words cause Grandpa told me so.                    Verse 3: I promised him I wouldn’t cry when it was his time to leave. That’s the only promise I made him I couldn’t keep. He smiled from his bed and said we’ll meet again somewhere down the road. And I believe cause Grandpa told me so. Repeat Chorus 2 x Yeah and I still believe Grandpa told me so.                           Grandpa told me so.         I still believe.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque des leçons de vie précieuses transmises par un grand-père bienveillant. Il partage des conseils pratiques et sages sur la vie, comme l'importance d'affronter ses peurs et d'apprendre à nager en prenant des risques. Avec tendresse, il rappelle que l'amour véritable réside dans ce que l'on donne et qu'il faut parfois savoir lâcher prise. À travers ses souvenirs et son affection, le narrateur se remémore les moments partagés, y compris le plus difficile, celui de la séparation. Cette connexion profonde et les enseignements reçus restent gravés en lui, renforçant sa foi en la vie et en l'amour.
