Hey Can you hear me? I just wanted to let you know, hmm I hope you can hear what I write to you How could I say goodbye to you? When I'm a life that came out Of the inside of a life that was inside of you I gotta respect the way you provided food, for the whole fam' You came over on Windrush, supporting a mar jays old man Cold doubling eight kids, bare bills Plus racists full of hatred in your own plant Three jobs in a day (three jobs in a day) Brixton life had you working but you were never stress-free Just locked in a cage, slaving They said there were gold in the pavements When you came and saw the road, your amazement Broke your heart but still you were prone to loss And your sorrow was over fast I hope your listening, right (I hope your listening, right) I still think of you every Sunday No one can top your chicken and rice Even through the darkness times You held us all up because your vision was bright I knew your strength was your wisdom inside You never let anyone see your heartache You just got on with it Anyone that tells me that they knew you Said you were beautiful and your words you would stand strong with it 'Cause they were like warmth on a winter night But I was just too young to go on with it And there somethings I could try to do But it's an impossible task for me to even try to say goodbye to you I couldn't do that, I owe my life to you I grab the pieces of my soul Because I need a sign I hope this pain will heal in time You know I never want to be alone I can see the stars as a cold wind greets the air And will you think of me up there? Can I say goodbye to you? And paint the stains of the teardrops down my face? Or feel the chill of your warm embrace? Can I say goodbye to you? Ohh I think if only I was younger (younger) With the knowledge of things that I know now I would be by your side when you needed me Instead of asking you, "Nan can I go out?" Standing on road with them gangs are a no, now Everyone's missing you loads Jessica's grown up, Rory, Lauren and Alex are fine And I'm living with hope It's been a while since I've seen Sian and Miles I miss seeing a family, being a family And us agreeing with smiles how it used to be as a child But as time goes by, the bridge seems longer Family problems have never been funny In my heart the only one that dissed me, Sonia She took all our inheritance money Left the rest of us to pick up the pieces I never forgive the way she betrayed us There ain't a big enough reason Before I sell out my fam' I'll be giving up breathing But I guess that everyone's different Or should I say no one's perfect? She had happiness in front of her But chose to ride the wave that no one's surfing Since you gone the foundations crumbled So building it back up is my next step I got all of the bricks and the cement But it's hard when I'm done, I don't know what to expect So give me the strength that I need to perform this task Make it right, I must do and I ask 'cause I trust you It goes way beyond a song when I say that I love you I grab the pieces of my soul Because I need a sign I hope this pain will heal in time You know I never want to be alone I can see the stars as a cold wind greets the air And will you think of me up there? Can I say goodbye to you? And paint the stains of the teardrops down my face? Or feel the chill of your warm embrace? Can I say goodbye to you? Ohh It's just for now so I should hush I'll never get enough, I'll see you, when I see you but I miss you Oh, how I miss you It's just for now so I should hush I'll never get enough, I'll see you when I see you but I miss you Oh, how I miss you There ain't enough words to describe How sorry I am for the pain that I caused Sorry for when I stuck up my own blood We were young and he said I was raping his broad And for the day police came to the door I'm sorry for being such a bad yute Stealing from your purse and making you mourn I never been able to say this before 'Cause I was so inconsiderate You loved me unconditionally And I took advantage of it like a idiot Not seeing the pure soul I was living with I really hope that you can forgive me You going away was a punishment But I won't let go I'm holding you with me But I still fight emotions within me I can see the stars as a cold wind greets the air And will you think of me up there? And can I say goodbye to you? And paint the stains of the teardrops down your face? Or feel the chill of your warm embrace? And can I say goodbye to you? I can see the stars as a cold wind greets the air And will you think of me up there? And can I say goodbye to you? And paint the stains of the teardrops down my face? Or feel the chill of your warm embrace? Can I say goodbye to you?
