Eva  Mae,
 I remember  the day you were born
 It was the summer
Your  mum and dad called me up  to say how proud
 They were
Voices  ringing with the love  of a new born child
Light  shining in their eyes,  expectant smiles
 (Same as previous Verse)
 Eva Mae,
 Well your father and I have been friends
 Many years
 Watched the world around us change,
 Hoped our hopes, feared our fears
 He asked me to watch you, as you grow
 Hold your hand through the highs and lift you up through the lows
 Now Eva Mae,
 Don't you judge  me too hard
 I try  to be a good man to be the best  with what I got
 Eva Mae,
 I will teach  you what I know
 And watch  over you everywhere that you go
 (Same as first verse)
 Eva Mae,
 I have made many mistakes
 In my time
 Built my share of bridges and broken hearts
 I've told lies
 I have not always followed my own advice
 I've fallen flat
 But Eva darling sometimes that's just life
 Eva Mae,
 With the way that I am I might not
 Much be around
 But I'll stop in from time to time to share
 The things I've learnt
 You should keep your friends and family close
 And always always always try to say yes
 And we can not ever one of us be perfect
 But darling we can try our best
 Now Eva Mae,
 I won't ever  judge your heart,
 Just try  to be a good girl and do the best  with what you got
 Now Eva Mae,
 I will teach  you what I know,
 And watch  over you everywhere that you go
 Everywhere that you go
