Carroll C. Clark — Dear Little Boy of Mine

[Verse] Oft when I'm lonely my memory swings Back to your baby days Feeling the joy that a baby brings Out of God's wond'rous ways Seeming to hear the first pray'r that you said Longing to tuck you in bed There's no one knows how I long for you now Here with my arms outspread [Chorus] Boy of mine, boy of mine Although my heart was breaking I seemed to know you'd want to go Pride in your manhood waking I'll be here, waiting, dear Till at a glad dawn's breaking I'll hear you say you're home to stay Dear little boy of mine Dear little boy of mine
