My Boy

原文

You don't even know my name

But I pray for you the same

And I'll see you in the short coming days

And I stand by you when I'm tired

And I'll hold you all the while

And I'll love you like a stranger loves a smile

Now I think about my life

And the things that I've done right

Like how it makes me feel to call you mine

Oh and when I close my eyes

I lose track of time

'Cause forty felt way farther in my mind

It's a funny thing now

These feelings that I've got

These feelings that I've not felt before

It's the little things I

Now tend to love the most

I begin to love the most

About you, my boy

Well I think about the things you'll do

And your mama does too

Oh I hope you got her eyes and her soul too

'Cause when you need me I'll be there

When you need a little care

It'll be alright, steady on, boy I swear

It's a funny thing now

These feelings that I've got

These feelings that I've not felt before

It's the little things I

Now tend to love the most

I begin to love the most

About you, my boy

If you were to ask me how I felt

I'd say I'm still a kid myself

That I'm learning right and wrong and nothing else

But I'm thankful to the Lord

That I know what I'm here for

When it comes to loving you

Of that I'm sure, my boy
