remember me

This is an original song, I am not sure where I got the idea but. I used to work in a nursing home and I guess I got a soft spot for grandmas and grandpas. Anyways I hope everyone likes it!!! Let me know what you think!!!
lyrics

young girl with bright eyes going to see grandma
ma says she aint got much time
hug her, kiss her, tell her you love her, cause this might be the last time
Grandma held my hand and with her last breath she said

people get old as time goes by, nothing lasts they say
hair turns gray and tattoos fade, youth goes with age
Nothing consistant in this world
nothing certain but death
as curtain falls on closing night it makes you think
Who' remember? chorus
remember me
remember my words
remember my love
remember everything your made of
remember your roots and where you come from
remember me for me and not for who Ive become

The scar of time is a wrinkle and
my face proves it true
my hair once brown is gray
who knows how it got that way
live your life not someone Else's
ans know ill be sending my love from the sky
but one more thing before i go chorus
as i sat and watched grandma close her eyes
as we all sat and said our last goodbyes
as her spirit slipped away from this world
I could still hear my grandmas last words chorus
