came to us a tiny baby
precious as she could be
hair of red,eyes of gold
was an angel for us to see
she had a little tiny cry
he could hardly stay away
picked her up in his arms
she won his heart that day
to watch him hold her in his arms
something you had to see
then they played with her toys
whoops! she just turned three
ran through the door, right past me
she didn't have much to say
ran up the stairs into his room
where's Grampa? I want to play
loved to play the computer with him
he'd show her how to start
loved to play the games with her
knew she was quite smart
as time went by, she grew up
their love just seemed to get stronger
when it was time for her to go home
he wished her time had been longer
the day came fast that sadness fell
his heart just came to rest
how do you tell the little red head
God only takes the best
she knows he's here, she talks to him
she knows he's always close by
whenever a train runs down the track
she always makes sure to say hi
