Elvis Presley - My Boy

Youre sleeping son, I know
But, really, this cant wait
I wanted to explain
Before it gets too late
For your mother and me
Love has finally died
This is no happy home
But God knows how Ive tried

Because youre 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 its hard to understand
Why did we ever start?
Were more like strangers now
Each acting out a part
I have laughed, I have cried
I have lost every game Taken all I can take
But Ill stay just the same

Because youre 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 havent heard a word

Perhaps its 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 youre just a child
Ill stay her and watch you grow

Because youre all I have, my boy
You are my life, my pride, my joy
And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy
