Lyrics

In the house where we would go
when I was a child
and all of my family were there
there's an old violin
that hangs on the wall
by a picture at the foot of the stairs.

And many were the nights
we would fall into bed
at the end of a long summer day
and our dreams would take flight
in the fading light
to the tunes that my grandfather played
[chorus] And time slowed down
to listen to the sound
of the music that floated through the hall
at the end of the day
when Grandfather played
that old violin on the wall

And he told me once
that when he was young
a travelling show came to town
and the fiddler in the band
was a drinking man
but he played with a beautiful sound

So Grandfather stayed
and while the band would play
he'd listen again and again
and the fiddler must have known
'cuz when the show moved on
he left behind an old violin

[chorus] And time slowed down...

Now the house still remains
where so many things have changed
and there are pictures where the family would have been
and Grandfather's there
in a frame by the stairs
next to that old violin

[chorus] And time slows down
to listen to the sound
of the music that floats through the hall
at the end of the day
when Grandfather plays
that old violin on the wall
