[Verse 1]
He smelled like old leather and sawdust and time
Wore flannel like armor and boots full of pride
With a voice like gravel and hands that could heal
He taught me what’s true and he showed me what’s real

[Pre-Chorus]
When the world felt too big, and I felt too small
He’d lift me up, like I’d never fall

[Chorus]
In my grandfather’s arms, the world made sense
I was safe in a storm, behind his defense
He didn’t say much, but his silence was kind
And I found more love than words could define
Now he’s gone, but somehow I’m calm
‘Cause I still feel home in my grandfather’s arms

[Verse 2]
He’d sit on the porch with his coffee and chair
Tell stories so simple, but they hung in the air
He didn’t chase money, never needed the fame
Said, “A good life is built on your word and your name”

[Pre-Chorus]
He’d hand me his coat when the cold settled in
And I swear, just like that, I’d feel whole again

[Chorus]
In my grandfather’s arms, the fear disappeared
Like the world slowed down when he pulled me near
He’d hum some old tune from a time long gone
But the feeling it gave me still lingers on
He’s a whisper now, not flesh and bone
But I still stand tall from my grandfather’s arms

[Bridge]
I carry his watch, and I wear his name
I’ve got his fire, running through my veins
And when I’m tired, or when life feels too hard
I remember the strength in his steady heart

[Chorus]
In my grandfather’s arms, I first learned to believe
In the quiet kind of love that never leaves
And when I hold my child and they look up at me
I hope they feel what he gave to me
He’s with me still, in soul and in calm
Yeah, I still live in my grandfather’s arms

[Outro]
He may be gone, but I know this much is true
His arms still guide me in all that I do
In my grandfather's arms

Title: You’re My Shadow 

[Verse]
You stand beside me never swayin'
In the darkest times you ain't playin'
You're the sun when clouds are grayin'
In my heart you'll always be stayin'

[Verse]
Through the storm you keep the light
In your eyes I see what's right
Even when the world's uptight
You're my day and my night

[Chorus]
You're the song my soul keeps singin'
Every note your love is bringin'
In your warmth my heart is clingin'
To you my shadow always swingin'

[Bridge]
Even when the road gets rocky
Every step you take so cocky
You're the lock and you're the key
You mean the world to me

[Verse]
When I'm down and feelin' broken
Your touch is more than just a token
In every word that you have spoken
I hear love
It's never broken

[Chorus]
You're the song my soul keeps singin'
Every note your love is bringin'
In your warmth my heart is clingin'
To you my shadow always swingin'

You're My Shadow
