Whatever I do, whatever I say, you're always there with me.
Wherever I go, whenever I speak, whatever I hear or see.
Sometimes you're out there leading, sometimes you're right behind,
But you're always there to help me, strengthening my mind.
I know when you'd be happy or when you'd disapprove.
I know when you would have me stay or when you'd have me move.
I know when you'd want quiet or when you'd sing out loud,
I know when you'd want solitude or when you'd want a crowd.
I know the things you'd cherish, I know the things you'd hate,
I know when you'd be eager, I know when you would wait.
I always try to please you - I did so from the start
Why should that now be different - you're still here in my heart.
I know when you'd be happy, I know when you'd be sad.
I know the things that made you cry - the things that made you glad.
I know when you would want 'the lads', I know when you'd want me.
I know when you would want a pint , I know when you'd want three!
I know when I would get a scowl or when I'd get a smile,
Your eyes would tell me everything, your thoughts stood out a mile.
We knew each other back to front and also inside out,
This knowledge came from being one - true love without a doubt.
Now life goes on without you, but I hear your laughter still,
I feel you all around me and I hope I always will. |
