Lyrics for Never Forget
In a child's eye there's something I hope someday you'll know A friend's dedication, it's something to behold A mother's smile, it makes everything alright To a women's caring hand I'll be holding on tonight [Chorus:] When you got love and we got family [x2] Keep 'em close and don't forget To hold them right there in your heart When you got love and family (Whoa!, Whoa!) (I'll remember you today) To my father's stern direction And the lessons that he taught My grandmother's affection And the faith I always fought To the kids at the shows The way you sing it back at us And the boys down the park When we were young and live was nuts [Chorus:] When you got love and we got family [x2] Keep 'em close and don't forget To hold them right there in your heart When you got love and family (Whoa!, Whoa!) (I'll remember you today) To all the single parents Who keep holding down the fort To all you sons & daughters Be thankful for what you've got To everyone with no one May good fortune turn your way To everyone whose had someone Remember them today [Chorus:] When you got love and we got family [x2] Keep 'em close and don't forget To hold them right there in your heart When you got love and family
