Dear Simon | The Bowery | Official Lyric Video | 'Time and Again' Album

Описание: "My daughter, Evi, had a tough year last year. At school she got a lucky doll, which she called Simon and could leave in her pocket whenever she had to do something she didn’t like or felt insecure about. She decided to write letters to Simon in a notebook about everything she was unsure about or feared and I thought it was great that she never did that secretly. Apparently, our home felt safe enough. For me as a father that is the most beautiful thing there is. I want nothing more than for our home to be a place where all insecurities and fears are safe. Where Evi is loved no matter what. I wanted to make a song about it and the only way to do that was to write a letter to Simon myself, titled, ‘Dear Simon’."

LYRICS:

Dear Simon
You don’t know me
But you know my daughter well
She’s been writing letters to you
She’s got so much to tell
And I thought that it was time
To write a letter of my own
You came into our family
So welcome to our home

You’ve been there for Evi
Now will you be there for me
If I tell you all my stories
Everything I try to be
The things I should remember
So much I can’t forget
The things I’ve done I’m proud of
But so much that I regret

So will you tell my daughter
All that matters in the end
I’ll always love her as a father
But that doesn’t always mean
I’m her best friend

Dear Simon
You don’t know me
So I want to tell you more
How sometimes I can feel certain
But sometimes I’m so unsure
And I want you to know
The most important thing to me
How I long to be her roots
How I long to set her free

Sometimes the best that I can do
Just doesn’t seem enough
When the world is on my shoulders
And the road ahead is rough
But I’ll always keep on trying
So don’t let her forget
I may have many years behind me
But I’m not finished yet

So will you tell my daughter
All that matters in the end
I’ll always love her as a father
But that doesn’t always mean
I’m her best friend

So will you tell my daughter
All that matters in the end
I’ll always love her as a father
But that doesn’t always mean
I’m her best friend

I’m her best friend
