DS Hill and Friends

I Hope You're Watching
When our loved ones pass do they watch us? Are they proud?
For my mother and father.
(Verse 1)
She’s the one who cared for us
And made our house a home
She tried so hard to hold us close
While feeling so alone
She never let her heartbreak
Take the kindness from her hands
She gave us something stronger
Than we could understand
He was hard to understand
Not the life she’d ever planned
Still she held on
And did the best she can
(Chorus)
I hope you’re watching
And see the man that I’ve become
I hope you hear me
Sing the songs we left unsung
Through the laughter and the pain
Through the sunshine and the rain
I hope you’re watching
He was always quiet
Never much to say
I never knew the man he was
Until he walked away
There was anger in the distance
There was silence in his eyes
And I built my understanding
On the absence in his life
Years went by, then he came back
With the weight of his regrets
I could see it in his eyes
All the love he never said
I hope you’re watching
And see the man that I’ve become
I hope you hear me
Sing the songs we left unsung
Through the laughter and the pain
Through the sunshine and the rain
I hope you’re watching
If there’s a window in the sky
Where love can still look down
I hope you see the life we made
And the peace that we have found
(Acoustic guitar solo)
(Chorus)
I hope you’re watching
And see the man that I’ve become
I hope you hear me
In every note I’ve ever sung
Through the years I couldn’t change
Through the love that still remains
I hope you’re watching
