Sonny Boy

When there are grey skies

I don't mind the grey skies

You make them blue, Sonny Boy

Friends may forsake me

Let them all forsake me

I still have you Sonny Boy

You're sent from heaven and I know your worth

You made a heaven for me right here on the earth

When I'm old and grey, dear

Promise you won't stray, dear

I need you so, Sonny Boy

When there are grey skies

What don't you mind them at least?

I don't mind the grey skies

What will I do to them?

You make them blue

What's my name?

Sonny Boy

What will friends do to you?

Friends may forsake me

What will you let them do?

Let them all forsake me

Who will you still have in the end?

I still have you

What's my name?

Sonny Boy

Where am I sent from?

You're sent from heaven

Have I any special valuation?

And I know your worth

What did I make?

You made a heaven

For who, right where and what?

For me, right here on earth

God bless me

When I'm old and grey, dear

Why made to promise something?

Promise me you won't stray, dear

Give me a good reason

I need you so

What's my name?

Sonny Boy
