Intro

Verse

Eva Mae,

I remember the day you were born

It was the summer

Your mum and dad called me up to say how proud

They were

Voices ringing with the love of a new born child

Light shining in their eyes, expectant smiles

(Same as previous Verse)

Eva Mae,

Well your father and I have been friends

Many years

Watched the world around us change,

Hoped our hopes, feared our fears

He asked me to watch you, as you grow

Hold your hand through the highs and lift you up through the lows

Now Eva Mae,

Don't you judge me too hard

I try to be a good man to be the best with what I got

Eva Mae,

I will teach you what I know

And watch over you everywhere that you go

(Same as first verse)

Eva Mae,

I have made many mistakes

In my time

Built my share of bridges and broken hearts

I've told lies

I have not always followed my own advice

I've fallen flat

But Eva darling sometimes that's just life

Eva Mae,

With the way that I am I might not

Much be around

But I'll stop in from time to time to share

The things I've learnt

You should keep your friends and family close

And always always always try to say yes

And we can not ever one of us be perfect

But darling we can try our best

Now Eva Mae,

I won't ever judge your heart,

Just try to be a good girl and do the best with what you got

Now Eva Mae,

I will teach you what I know,

And watch over you everywhere that you go

Everywhere that you go
