Elvis Presley - My Boy
Elvis gives a convincing performance full of strength and passion.
Recorded: 1973/12/13, first released on "Good Times" album 1974
(Words & Music: B. Martin / P. Coulter)
Lyrics:
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 has 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 a part
I have laughed, I have cried
I have lost every game
Taken all I can take
But I'll stay 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 her 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

Après Franck Sinatra et "Comme d'habitude", c'est au tour d'Elvis d'adapter une original de Claude François "Parce que je t'aime mon enfant" sorti en 1970 !!!

Sooooo true, I will go through hell and back and never moan as long as my boy is happy and smiling, no need for me to tell my son about his dad, he is doing a grand job of showing him his self!!!!!!
