I don't know if you'll remember me I was more than just a phase when you were three It wasn't my choice that I had to leave I hate that when you see me in a photo I'll be the only person that you don't know I wonder if they'll give you all the cards I send on your birthday When your nose is bloody And your hands are dirty But you need someone to hold And when your heart gets broken You get caught smoking I want you to know That you won't see me But I'll be there, believe me And you won't see me But I'll bе there, beliеve me And you're all dressed up for the first day of school Your backpack is too big for you When you smile for the camera, just smile for me And when you get into trouble for the first time And you don't know who to call for some good advice I wish you knew that I was here for whatever you need When your nose is bloody And your hands are dirty But you need someone to hold And when your heart gets broken You get caught smoking I want you to know That you won't see me But I'll be there, believe me You won't see me But I'll be there, believe me And when you meet your first boyfriend or girlfriend I hope that they treat you just like I would And I wonder what will make laugh 'til you're on the floor Listening to a band I've never heard before When you grow up one day we will meet again Yeah I hope that we will 'Cause I love you so much it hurts And for what it's worth I will care for you still You won't see me But I'll be there, believe me You won't see me But I'll be there, believe me
