| To a boy who looks just like his mother, who’s a sister to her brother who
|
| sings this song with that boy from far away
|
| I am young but you are younger so you speak more words then mumble.
|
| You have to lend an ear to everything I say.
|
| So be kind and love your mother and your father, though sometimes they seem to
|
| bother, come my age, and you’ll know
|
| There the ones who’ll always love you and support you, they prayed for you
|
| before you stepped foot into this world.
|
| That’s one thing that I’ve learned.
|
| I remember you were walking, in a month I’ll hear you talking.
|
| There’s a million things I’d love to say to you.
|
| Though your parents, they are wiser and will be better advisers,
|
| maybe hearing these things twice will get them through.
|
| Go and find a girl for whom your love is selfless, someone who makes you
|
| helpless, to change the way you feel.
|
| But stay away from girls who always look so pretty, who’s hearts just aren’t
|
| fitting for the man in you I see.
|
| Would you remember that for me?
|
| Would you remember that for me? |
| Oh.
|
| Would you remember all these things?
|
| Would you remember all these things?
|
| Would you remember just these things?
|
| Would you remember just these things?
|
| When you find yourself alone in times of trouble, reach inside you and above
|
| you, there’s nothing
|
| He can’t heal.
|
| And if it is you do not end up with a brother, just call your older uncle,
|
| I can always lend an ear.
|
| Would you remember that for me?
|
| Would you remember that for me? |
| Oh… |
