"Wandering Boy" lyrics - BILLY STRINGS

Where is my wandering boy tonight?
The boy of my tenderest care
The boy that was once full of life
The child of my tenderest prayer

Once, he was pure as morning dew
As he knelt at his mother's knee
No face was so bright, no heart more true
And none was so sweet as he

[Chorus:]
Where is my boy tonight?
Oh, where is my boy tonight?
My heart overflows
I love him, he knows
Oh, where is my boy tonight?

Go for my wandering boy tonight
Go search for him where you will
But bring him to me with all your light
And tell him I love him still

[Chorus:]
Where is my boy tonight?
Oh, where is my boy tonight?
My heart overflows
I love him, he knows
Oh, where is my boy tonight?
My heart overflows
I love him, he knows
Oh, where is my boy tonight?
