My Boy Songtext / Lyric

You're sleeping son, I know

but really, this can't wait

I wanted to explain

before it gets too late.

For your mother and me

love is finally died,

this is no happy home

but God knows how I've tried



Because you're all I have my boy

you are my life, my pride, my joy

and if I stay, I stay because of you

my boy






I know it's hard to understand

why did we ever start?

We' re more like strangers now

each acting out of part.

I've laughed, I've cried

I've lost every game.

Taken all I can take

but I'll stay here just the same.



Because you're all I have, my boy

you are my life, my pride, my joy

and if I stay, I stay because of you

my boy



Sleep on, you haven't heard a word

perhaps it's just as well.

Why spoil your little dreams

why put you through the hell.

Life is no fairytale

as one day you will know.

But now you're just a child

I'll stay here and watch you grow



Because you're all I have my boy

you are my life, my pride, my joy

and if I stay, I stay because of you

my boy



Because you're all I have my boy

you are my life, my pride, my joy

and if I stay, I stay because of you

my boy
