From the perspective of my grandma

I fear you're slipping through my fingers my dear
Your name on the tip of my tongue but I still can't find it
You'll always remember the memories we've made together
But I was in the room you were born and you're just a stranger to me now

-------------------------------------------------------------
From my perspective

Oh mummo, you're just the same as you've always been
But your mouth moves faster than your brain and your thoughts come out mixed up
You might not remember me but I'll always remember Sunday morning mcdonalds
I'll always remember going to Illinois with you and pappa
That's all I ever need and as long as you're not scared
Neither am I
You may not be the same as when I was younger, but you're still all there
