MY BOY - Jon Bellion

Lyrics by：Jonathan Bellion/SPEARFISHER

Stay young

Stay small my boy

Fit inside these arms forever 'cause the world's not all it's cracked up to

Be

I sigh

I cry my boy

Soon you'll see the world is not this room

And I can't keep you from the pain that you'll have to

See

Lord it's tough to hold my son and be here in the moment

I need to keep him safe tell me which direction this world is goin'

I feel ashamed for my lack of faith when You walked the ocean

Eve bit the apple my faith is weak and my trust is broken

There's things that I can't keep him from

Like the loneliness you feel in the realizations of growing up

Like a best friend at his mother's bedside while she passes from the leukemia

I hate the weakness of owning up to the sins of past

I hate the weakness of givin' up what I used to have

I hate the weakness of showin' my son what makes me sad

He said a present father is worth way more than a perfect dad

Stay young

Stay small my boy

Fit inside these arms forever 'cause the world's not all it's cracked up to

Be

I sigh

I cry my boy

Soon you'll see the world is not this room

And I can't keep you from the pain that you'll have to

See

Stay young
