Lyrics
English
When we are with you, we always have fun,
You make us feel we’re your special ones!
We can tell by the kindness in your smiles,
You recall how things look through the eyes of a child.
If we really need a hug or two,
We know that we can depend on you.
Giving hugs is what grandparents do best,
And you do it better than all the rest!
Here is a secret, and it is true-
Grandma and Grandpa, our hearts belong to you!
You make us feel we’re your special ones!
We can tell by the kindness in your smiles,
You recall how things look through the eyes of a child.
If we really need a hug or two,
We know that we can depend on you.
Giving hugs is what grandparents do best,
And you do it better than all the rest!
Here is a secret, and it is true-
Grandma and Grandpa, our hearts belong to you!
