In another time and place Grandma would kiss my face Wish I could go back there again I’d climb up in my Grandpa’s lap I’d lay down and take a nap That old man and me were best friends
And one day I turned around the leaves of fall had fallen down Those fields were bare and brown and they were gone, long gone
Long gone like bluebonnets in the spring we’re only here for a little while It’s beautiful and bittersweet so make the most of every mile So pack light and love heavy give it all your heart and soul So in the end you won’t regret one thing Life is like bluebonnets in the spring
There’s so much I can’t explain such as gravity and pain Still I remain blind folded and full of faith I kiss my angel girl goodbye, still can’t help but wonder why But I believe I’ll see her again someday
So hold ‘em tender and hold ’em tight, pray every morning day and night God will help you raise them right and don’t you blink, don’t blink
‘Cause like bluebonnets in the spring we’re only here for a little while It’s beautiful and bittersweet so make the most of every mile So pack light and love heavy give it all your heart and soul So in the end you won’t regret one thing Life is like bluebonnets in the spring
Life can be filled full sorrow Time is something you can’t borrow So love like there’s no tomorrow Because today could be the day
Like bluebonnets in the spring we’re only here for a little while It’s beautiful and bittersweet so make the most of every mile So pack light and love heavy give it all your heart and soul So in the end you won’t regret one thing Life is like bluebonnets in the spring
