Story behind the song
A song for a family who were torn apart when their precious dog named Baby Boy was cruelly shot and killed near their home in USA.
Lyrics
'Baby Boy'
Baby Boy, if you knew how much I miss you
Baby Boy, all those times I hugged and kissed you
Baby Boy, if dreams are all long gone
Then how can I go on without your love?
You chose my heart and I chose you to share it
From the start, a baby and a parent
Little one, now all I have is loss
I cannot count the cost it's all too much
Oh Baby Boy, there has to be an end to all this pain
Nobody can suffer this again
If anybody cruel could ever feel this blue
They'd learn a golden rule
Hold on to love, for you never know just when it will depart
Keep the friends you make so close inside your heart
For people make the law and sometimes there's a flaw
When you were killed my heart went off to war
Baby Boy, if you knew how much I missed you
Baby Boy, all those times I hugged and kissed you
Baby Boy, if dreams are all long gone
Then how can I go on without your love?
I'm torn in two, sleep little one, sleep safe and sound
Momma's all around, Baby Boy, Baby Boy
My Baby Boy...
