Lyrics
What's this?
It's a letter.
I can see it's a letter!
You can open it if you want.
Thank God for that, the suspense was killing me.
It's from me mam.
Your mam?
She wrote for us when I was 18. Except I couldn't wait
I see.
You can read it if you want. Read it out.
Dear Billy
I must seem a distant memory
Which is?
Which is probably a good thing
And it will have been a long-
A long time.
And I will have missed you growing,
And I'll have missed you crying
And I'll have missed you laugh.
Missed your stomping and your shouting,
I'll have missed telling you off,
But please Billy,
Know that I was always there.
I was with you through everything.
And please, Billy...
But please, Billy
Know that I will always be
Proud to have known you
Proud that you were mine
Proud in everything
And you must promise me this, Billy
In everything you do
Always be yourself, Billy
And you always will be true
And I'll have missed you growing,
I'll have missed you crying
And I'll have missed you laugh.
Missed your stomping and your shouting,
I'll have missed telling you off,
But please, Billy,
Know that I was always there.
I was with you through everything.
And please, Billy,
Know that I will always be.
Proud to have known you.
Love you forever.
Love you forever.
Mam
She must have been a very special woman.
No, she was just me mam.
Writer(s): Elton John, Lee Hall
