(1 )Grampa Matt,was young,just seventeen and one...when he left his heart and home,in the land of the midnight sun ! ...He rode across the waves,spread deep and wide...to a land of milk and honey ,and sunshine...(he said)..I'M GOING ...WHERE THE STREETS ARE PAVED IN GOLD...I HEARD SO MANY STORIES TOLD..WHEN I FIND IT THERE..I GOING HOME ! ! .. (2)..He came to help the men,who worked upon the tracks...he helped them earn their money,with his sweat and his back...he came to know a lady,who lived just down the line..in the spring,he took her for his wife..(saying).I'M GOING..WHERE THE STREETS ARE PAVED IN GOLD..I HEARD SO MANY STORIES TOLD...WHEN I FIND IT THERE..I'M GOING HOME!! ! (3)..he learned to work the fields of sun kissed grain...and often watched the family ,that carried on his name...remembering the time,and the promise that he made...working...just for the day..(singing).. I'M GOING...WHERE THE STREETS ARE PAVED IN GOLD..I HEARD SO MANY STORIES TOLD..WHEN I FIND IT THERE,I'M GOING HOME . ! ! ! ..(4)..the years..quickly slipped away,and a journey once begun must end someday...the dream that he chased would take him for a ride...when grampa ,layed down...and he died... (he said)..I'M GOING ...WHERE THE STREETS ARE PAVED IN GOLD...and..thru my song his story's told...you know I think............he finally..........made it home ! ! ! ...(grampa..your still with me )

I don't recall the cabin,set back beside the road... was there August winds dancing ?..or...September with *just* a breath of gold ?...was there thunder in the distance ?..these thoughts have gone so dim ! ..did I pull her closer to me? ..did she love me once again ?...*but* ..I know the rain came calling , to wash the window pane , and two hearts embraced,and were softly swept away ! ......*NOW*........ in the space,within the place where memories remain !...she'll *always* be there waiting...........................when I recall the rain..*sigh*
