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
