Backstory:
My son and his girlfriend of 6 years broke up. He was very close to her young son, acting as the only "father" he had ever known. Trying to console him, I said "Maybe she's not the one for you," to which he replied, "But that little boy is".
Lyrics:
THAT LITTLE BOY DOES
c2008 D. Opfer/S. Jackson
You say it’s over but we still need to talk
It's about your little one
He’s only 5 years old he won’t understand
'Cause even though he's not my son
He calls me dad I’m the father he never had
Let me be a part of his life
Even though there’s no more us
You don’t need/want/love me anymore
But that little boy does
That little boy does
Remember last week that big thunderstorm
You saw how he ran to me
He loves when we wrestle or go fishin’ at the Lake
Like a real family
And we can’t undo when he tells me I love you
CHORUS
I know this will be hard to do
But you’ll do what’s best for your son
I love that about you
CHORUS
TAG: That little boy does
You know he does
