That Lucky Old Sun Lyrics

For me this song has deep personal meaning.

My grandfather recently passed after years and years of fighting emphysema. Five years ago the doctors gave him six months to live, and he fought on until two months ago when my grandmother passed away. To me this song represents him pleading with God to take him to Heaven, and leave his troubles here on earth. I think my grandfather made his peace with death and was ready to meet his Creator.

It's a beautifully peaceful song, with personal deep meaning.
