Lyrics
Dear Jermaine, I'm still with you every day
I remember all the football games we used to play
In the park, 'til it got dark, look at you now
Daddy's looking down smiling like look at you, wow
Such a fine young man, about to turn sixteen
You're everything that I would see in my dreams
Know what it means when you score
And you look up and you show me that sign
I just want you to know, I'm so glad that you're mine
When you was born I used to hold you all through the night
Watching 24 and legendary heavyweight fights
That's why I taught you to box and know the wrongs from your rights
In my darkest of moments, you was always my light
And I love how you're polite, that's the way to be
Making them positive strides since 2003
When you were born, and look at how far you've come
I just want you to know I'm so proud of you son
This is a letter to Jermaine
I'm still watching every one of your games
I'm still here, we're still a family, father and son
That bond will never be broken, that bond will never be done
This is a letter to Jermaine
I'm still watching every one of your games
I'm still here, we're still a family, father and son
That bond will never be broken, that bond will never be done
The next branch in my family tree
And son I beg you always look after your mum for me
You exceed my expectations, such a joy to see
You're everything that a father would want his boy to be
And it's been such a blessing just watching you grow
But there's still a couple things that I want you to know
Just some words of advice from me to you
When you're at a crossroads and don't know what to do
Live your life to the fullest, listen to your inner voice
Search your heart for what's right so you can make the best choice
Continue to make me proud, continue to make me smile
And when the day comes, walk your sisters down the aisle
And when it's your time to be married, make a toast to me
'Cause I'll be watching every minute, as happy as can be
I am you, you are me, we are one family
I live on through you and live on eternally
This is a letter to Jermaine
I'm still watching every one of your games
I'm still here, we're still a family, father and son
That bond will never be broken, that bond will never be done
This is a letter to Jermaine
I'm still watching every one of your games
I'm still here, we're still a family, father and son
That bond will never be broken, that bond will never be done
Jermaine, I just want to thank you for everything you gave me
And when I had to go, I wanna thank you for your bravery
I am the man you made me, being a father to you
Was the biggest blessing God ever gave me
So I just wanna let you know you're never alone
In your heart I'll always live forever, home sweet home
All the memories I cherish, the best I've ever known
I cut the cord when you was born and now look how you've grown
What a journey it's been, and I know it's been hard
But when you're down, just listen to the words in the bars
You can achieve anything as long as you believe
And I believe in you, just wish that I didn't have to leave
In the physical, but I'm still here, so just please
Keep going and good luck with your GCSEs
You've got the keys to success, so unlock them doors
Just know I'll always love you, the world is yours
