Happy birthday mom!?
This is a song Robbie Williams wrote for his Nan!?
It's such a beautiful song!?
Mom, this is for you!?
You said when you'd die that you'd walk with me every day
And I'd start to cry and say please don't talk that way
With the blink of an eye the Lord came and asked you to meet
You went to a better place but He stole you away from me
And now she lives in heaven
But I know they let her out
To take care of me
There's a strange kind of light
Caressing me tonight
Pray silence my fear she is near
Bringing heaven down here
I miss your love I miss your touch
But I'm feeling you every day
And I can almost hear you say
'You've come a long way baby'
And now you live in heaven
But I know they let you out
To take care of me
There's a strange kind of light
In my bedroom tonight
Pray silence my fear she is near
Bring your heaven down here
You taught me kings and queens
While stroking my hair
In my darkest hour I know you are there
Kneeling down beside me
Whispering my prayer
Yes there's a strange kind of light
Caressing me tonight
Pray silence my fear
She is near
Bringing heaven down here
The next time that we meet
I will bow at her feet
And say wasn't life sweet
Then we'll prepare
To take heaven down there

Enjoy!?

I'm sorry. I hate it when people call their Grandmother Nan. Nan is short for Nanny, someone who is paid to look after someone else's child/ren. Not a Grandparent.
I had a Nana. I love that song!
Thanks, Minge, again! Nan and Grandmother are two completely different words/persons.
I didn't know RW had that song about his granny. I don't like him that much, but the lyrics are great. Touching. :-)
I've got one of Robbie Williams albums. It's alright, not really into it.
You're sounding down again.
Happy birthday to your mom. I remember an old ritual that says: Her "...faults we write upon the sand." Her goodness "...we write upon the tablets of love and memory."
Nice post, Joel.
