Elvis Presley - My Boy

My Boy
Elvis Presley

You're sleeping son, I know
But, really, this can't wait
Before it gets too late
I wanted to explain
Love has finally died
For your mother and me
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
We're more like strangers now
I have laughed, I have cried
Each acting out a part
Why did we ever start?
I have lost every game
Taken all I can take
Because you're all I have, my boy
But I'll stay just the same

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
Why put you through the hell
Perhaps it's just as well
Why spoil your little dreams
Life is no fairytale
As one day you will know
But now you're just a child

Because you're all I have, my boy
I'll stay her and watch you grow
You are my life, my pride, my joy
And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy
