[00:01.13]	When I was born my grandfather
[00:06.04]	held me in his warm hands
[00:10.47]	And it seems though his eyes are teary
[00:14.75]	But it’s hard to tell from an old photograph
[00:20.21]	While my brother and sister danced
[00:24.42]	At the feet of his tired and weathered frame
[00:30.21]	He said there’s a light to this boy I’ve rarely seen
[00:36.43]	And there he gave me my name
[00:41.85]	Well my grandfather was a sniper
[00:47.13]	In the Red Army
[00:52.05]	He never knew brothers in arms
[00:56.19]	From on both side stood enemy
[01:00.57]	Will the cold unbroken will to survive
[01:06.48]	His steady hand took care
[01:10.87]	And he drank just enough to keep himself warm
[01:15.36]	For he never spoke his true name
[01:30.55]	When I was a boy the summer were out
[01:35.03]	He would take me down to the sea
[01:39.81]	And standing on the water’s edge
[01:42.45]	And watch me go crazy
[01:44.45]	As the gentle waves rolled in
[01:49.24]	Looking back I wonder how he must have felt
[01:54.25]	Watching me running so free
[01:58.78]	All the years in his life he wished he could forget
[02:03.39]	Did he look at the world through me?
[02:18.31]	When I was a man I flew across the Ocean
[02:22.85]	When I heard he needed care
[02:27.70]	I listened as he spoke of his turbulent life
[02:32.33]	From his ordinary chair
[02:37.10]	And he ended by saying
[02:39.64]	“oh, I’ve had enough
[02:42.23]	The time has come for me to go
[02:46.82]	I have only one wish
[02:48.88]	That is a left in me
[02:51.55]	To be taken peacefully”
[03:07.30]	Just before I was due to marry
[03:11.43]	I heard he could not walk anymore
[03:16.14]	It was then he gave up fight
[03:18.71]	I’ve say goodbye
[03:21.19]	Almost one year before
[03:25.90]	And I’ll never forget something he told me
[03:32.64]	He said“its a cruel world but you must live without fear”
[03:39.14]	Well I sure do miss my grandfather
[03:43.83]	He’s the reason why I’m here

[00:01.13]	When I was born my grandfather
