That Boy Lyrics

Tom Faulkner That Boy

Mom's still in the kitchen while Linda's playing dolls
Dad throws me one more touchdown when my grandmom finally calls
As we say grace for dinner, my eyes closed but I still see
This boy will always be a part of me

Well, my bag stayed beneath me, when schools are out in May
And summertime in Galveston's, I have days drive away
So we'd load up the wagon and head out towards the sea
And that boy will always be a part of me

This whirlwind comes and carries me away where I can soar
Through a world that's filled with music all around
Yet with all this pomp and circumstance, I've always known there's more
'Coz my home was where true love was always found

I knew one day I'd wake up and hope he would be gone
I knew that there will come a time I'd finally move along
But no matter where this road's led, this I still believe
That boy will always be a part of me
I pray that boy will stay the biggest part of me
