about

My little brother sent me this picture over the weekend. The song is from my grandmother's perspective.

lyrics

they’re coming to visit again
my son and his son and his son
and three generations will sit beside me
just to get a picture made

my baby I held every day
and then college took him away
and i waited for the holidays
just to get a picture made

photographs all over my wall
shoe boxes fill up the hall
my collection is almost complete
so come and take your picture with me

at his wedding I cried out of love
my family was starting to grow
and I stood there with him holding hands
and we got a picture made

and the baby was named after me
and they brought him over to see
I held him and smiled so big
just to get a picture made

photographs all over my wall
shoe boxes fill up the hall
my collection is almost complete
so come and take your picture with me

his baby now has babies too
with 4 generations to view
they’re coming to see today
just to get a picture made

his grandkids are starting to grow
and they’ll fill up homes of their own
they’ll be happy to sit beside him long after i’m gone
just to get a picture made

they’re coming to visit again
it’s been a year since I have seen them
and three generations will sit beside me
just to get a picture made
