You are still my boy
Even though you're gone now
We have your memories lingerin' on
Boyish laughter rings out clear
And it seems you must be near
Footsteps sound and I look around
And I look to see if you are here
You still claim a part
Of that hopeful place I call my heart
Hopeless is a word I never learned
Though my head knows what is true
That we've seen the very last of you
My heart won't listen, it just keeps missin'
That lovin' boy that it once knew
You will always be
You will always be
Somewhere deep inside of me
I know it, yes I know it
I can feel it
I ain't no prophet claimin' doom now
Somehow I never learned the knack
You got a boy, you give him room now
And then there's nothin' ever gonna bring him back, oh
You are still my boy
Even though, even though you're gone now
I hear your laughter lingerin' on
I hear it, yes it's true
And no matter what I do
No matter where, no matter where I'm goin' to
I'll always have my memories
I'll always have my memories
I'll always have my memories of you
Of you
