When I was a young boy I could play any song
From rock an' roll to country, I'd play all night long
Grandpa would tell me, play that 'Rose of San Antone'
And I'd just smile with my youth
And say I'd learn it later on
Here's my San Antonio rose to you
The song you wanted me to learn for you
Wherever you go, this song's for you
Here's my San Antonio rose that goes out to you
Maybe I thought Grandpa would be around forever
It never crossed my mind how fast he could go
Soon I grew much older and so did he
Well, suddenly I realized how fast we grow old
Here's my San Antonio rose to you
The song you wanted me to learn for you
Wherever you go, this song's for you
Here's my San Antonio rose that goes out to you
The day Grandpa left us was a day I can't forget
Never did I learn his song Lord, I regret
So if you're listening from up above
Keep those tears from my eyes
And let me know that I've touched you so high in the sky
Here's my San Antonio rose to you
The song you wanted me to learn for you
Wherever you go, this song's for you
Here's my San Antonio rose that goes out to you
Here's my San Antonio rose that goes out to you
