Dear Ben - Loyle Carner/Jean Coyle-Larner

作曲:Jordan Rakei/Jean Coyle-Larner
I've watched you grow from first kick to first kiss
Shoulder rides to sleepless nights
Felt tip crows to scoring goals and bedtime Katamino
Watched you hold your own from boy to man
As you stand firm bare and bold not afraid to walk alone
Reveal your pain
Unique
Defiant
Uncompromising
And with our compass lost we talked long into the darkest hours
Until we saw the burnished sky and our eyes stung as our words blurred and became thoughts
As we were silenced by the dawn
We clung to each other like sailors in a storm as our world pitched and bucked our breath stolen by grief
But you stood strong filled such big boots
Gripped to the helm and steered us on into the calm
Abandoned your lifetime ambition to hold us down
Took on a different mission while we were turned inside out raw and gaping
But you wrapped us up in your dream realised your vision and fed us with your words of power
Like buccaneers we sailed the seven seas and drank in the wonders of your world and returned giddy with the heady smell of your success
And when that time came oh did we weep
But the tears that streaked our cheeks were stained with glee because we knew that this was not goodbye
That you'd be back that you'd never really left
Because love does not lessen by miles it's not locked out by doors or walls
But reinforced in thought and heart
It cannot be lost like a key or a sock
Or left behind in a box it is present in each and every breath and flows deep with every beat and deed
It may not be your presence but it's your essence that remains
Forever dancing like glitter in our air
And now it's as clear to me my beautiful boy
As naked as the joy that caresses the creases of your eye
That you've finally found your one your golden snitch and my task is done
For I've gained a daughter
I've not lost a son
You wait till Emily hears that you wait till the world hears that Fuuuuuu
Do you like it
It's even better than the first one
Oh my days
