Lyrics

Verse 1
Hey little girl enough TV, let’s go outside catch some Vitamin D
Turn dirt and water into apple pies, swing tree to tree like Chinese acrobats
Make mother nature just a little bit angry, pick all those flowers take them home to daddy
Before you know it we’ll see the moon, grandma knew good things often end too soon

When it was time to go, I’d do my best to disappear
Grandma might have been old, but she sure knew how to dream
She’d say ‘Queen calling Princess, your Majesty your Highness
Here I grant you a minute, it’s all yours, do what you want with it
Here take this minute and make the most of it’

Chorus
And time would freeze like ice, I've seen it with my own eyes
Built entire cities of stone, turned rocks and pebbles into gold
I saw the world from an eagle’s view, sled my way down to Timbuktu
That minute felt like a year

I need more time
The world is spinning too fast
Please give me time
Take me back…take me back…to Grandma’s minute

Verse 2
Grandma you’ve always been a child at heart, you got storytelling right down to an art
Pictures you painted were sometimes sad, you showed me the magic, the good and the bad
Now your voice quivers as you talk to me
Wish I could give you back some of my energy

Soon you may have to go, but you don’t live in fear
You tell me life is long but don’t put off your dreams
I remember you calling me your Princess, your Majesty your Highness
Here I grant you a minute, it’s all yours, do what you want with it
Here take this minute and make the most of it

Chorus

Grandma I thank you for teaching me to be bold
Live this life day by day, not just work but also play
I need more time, this is true, somehow I will make it through
I’ll turn those minutes into years

Cause time can freeze like ice, I’ve seen it with my own eyes
Built entire cities of stone, turned rocks and pebbles into gold
I saw the world from an eagle’s view, sled my way down to Timbuktu
That minute felt like a year

I need more time
The world is spinning too fast
Please give me time
Take me back…take me back…to Grandma’s minute

Grandmas's minute (x4)
