I still remember family celebrations When mom would roll the carpet from the floor There did'nt have to been no big occasion Friends would always find a welcome at the door I'd watch them dance each other round the room Mom and dad would sing their favorite tune And gramma tapped her feet as i recall When grampa took the fiddle from the wall Old friends chatted freely with each other Their memories passing many hours away Sad songs making tears so hard to cover Oh if only times like those were here today I'd watch them dance each other round the room Mom and dad would sing their favorite tune And gramma tapped her feet as i recall When grampa took the fiddle from the wall Those days are gone the years pass oh so quickly now No more will i hear my mother softly sing But in my heart i'll keep those precious memories And in my mind i hear their voices ring I'd watch them dance each other round the room Mom and dad would sing their favorite tune And gramma tapped her feet as i recall When grampa took the fiddle from the wall I'd watch them dance each other round the room Mom and dad would sing their favorite tune And gramma tapped her feet as i recall When grampa took the fiddle from the wall And gramma tapped her feet as i recall When grampa took the fiddle from the wall
