When I Hear You Call

When I

Look into those bright eyes

So young

Always so ready to run

Then I

See your change when fun subsides

And new colors start to arise

There's a hidden picture

That wasn't seen outside

When you run, don't tire

Keep on reaching, higher

Even when the pain and trouble bring you down, sometimes

I will see you through

I'm forever right here with you

Even when you feel you don't need me around

I will be your friend, forever

I will be your one, big brother

Even when I see you fall

I will be your father

When I hear you call

Don't cry

This is not the end, nor goodbye

But begin

To know I'm with you 'til the end

And when you pray

I will hear every word you say

And so with all my promises made

For one like you

Someone who's especially made

When you run, don't tire

Keep on reaching, higher

Even if the pain and trouble bring you down, sometimes

I will see you through

I'm forever right here with you

Even if you feel you don't need me around

I will be your friend, forever

I will be your one, big brother

Even when I see you fall

I will be your father

Yeah

I will be your friend, forever

I will be your big brother

Even when I see you fall

I will be your father

Yeah

I will be your friend, forever

I will be your big brother

Even when I see you fall

I will be your father

Be your friend, your brother

When I hear you call

Lift you when you fall

When I hear you call
