I remember your hands so tiny and new
The tubes and the wires tangled around you
But I never once doubted you boy
Somehow I knew that you'd be the one
To grow and sing songs with me
That you'd be my son, my son
When you're lonely and left out
Remember this, remember this
I love you more now than I ever have
Its a gift beyond words to be your old man
Though it might not show
Be steady and strong and humble and true
Don't let some stray fear put doubt into you
Believe in your gifts
When your lost and upside down
Remember this, remember this
If words worth saying weren't so hard
You'd know by now, you'd know
If words worth saying weren't so hard
You'd know by now that I'm so proud of you
And if I should die, before you awake
Or words come between us and drive you away
I'll never lose faith in you boy
You'll find your own way and you won't stray far
From the things you believe in and the man that you are
Be who you are
Remember this
