Al Denson - He's Watching Me Lyrics
I had two left feet yet I believedThat I could rise aboveI watched the bigger kidsAnd prayed the coach would put me inBut I sat on the benchWell my biggest fan sat in the standsFor each and every gameAnd though he was blind, he listened forThe coach to call my name“Please coach let me play”“You see my dad, He’s watching meYes, my Dad’s so proud of meEven though my dad can’t seeHe’s watching me”Well the weeks went byAnd summer time was almost at an endIt was a special day I just had to playMay not get this chance againThe coach put me inAnd underneath the stars that nightI got my first hitWhen I crossed the plateTears on my face, I looked up in the standsI nodded to the empty seatThat used to be my dad’sCoach said “Sorry son,Your daddy wasn’t here to seeAnd I said “Yes he was”“I guess you didn’t hear the newsMy dad, he passed awayAnd I know Jesus touched his eyesAnd for the first timeMy dad he’s really watching meYes my dad’s so proud of meUp in heaven Dad can seeHe’s watching meYou see my dad he’s watching meYes my dad’s so proud of meNow in heaven Dad can seeHe’s watching meUp in Heaven Dad he seesHe’s watching me”
