I’ll always be watching
M. Shelton

[VERSE 1]well i never got to meet her dad but imagine that talk we would've had.
He'd say, "son. it's time let's take a little walk.
What are your intentions for my little girl? How do you plan on giving her the world, now that you've taken her from mine?

[VERSE 2]
Don't try to tame her, too many have tried. Just treat her like a woman, make her your bride."
In his eyes, I'd see the pride.

[Chorus] He said, remember, that i'll always be watching

[VERSE 3] I went to war and came back alive.
Raising that girl, was the battle of my life.  I ain't giving up now.

[Chorus]
Son, remember, i'll always be watching 

[BRIDGE]
If she smiles, i'll know you have tried. But if she's sad, i'm gonna be the rain that falls from the sky.
And if you plan on spending the rest of your life...with her...
I'm gonna be watching

[Solo]

[VERSE 4]
Well, it's good we had this little talk.
Truth be told, I think you're alright.
The two of you, you're gonna be just fine

[Chorus]So long as you remember, i'll always be watching 
[Chorus] mmm, i'll always be watching 
[Chorus] If you ever need anything, i'll always be watching
