[Verse 1]
I'm not sad
Though it feels terrible
When you get
Him to smile
Today I understand
Too often by my side
He ended up
Wake up alone
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Promise you'll take better care of him
[Chorus]
When he cries, be ready to listen
Put on the Phil Collins vinyl
But don't sing along
Sit next to him and don't say a word
Wait until he's ready to talk
Just be there to support him
Don't be a reminder of me
[Verse 2]
I blame only myself
Why was I so foolish
To take tomorrow for granted
Don't do as I did
But put him together
Don't let go even when things get hard
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Promise you'll hold onto him harder
[Chorus]
When he cries, be ready to listen
Put on the Phil Collins vinyl
But don't sing along
Sit next to him and don't say a word
Wait until he's ready to talk
Just be there to support him
Don't be a reminder of me
[Post-Chorus]
Don't be a reminder of me
Don't be a reminder of me
Don't be a reminder of me
[Chorus]
When he cries, be ready to listen
Put on the Phil Collins vinyl
But don't sing along
Sit next to him and don't say a word
Wait until he's ready to talk
Just be there to support him
Don't be a reminder of me
[Post-Chorus]
Don't be a reminder of me
Don't be a reminder of me
