lyrics

Rudy, you’re sleeping on the floor again
I know it’s only been a week or less
Can we trust each other more than this?

Rudy, I don’t know where your mother went
But you’ll never be alone again
Believe every time we tell you that

We’ve got so much love to give
But you’re not having any of it
You’re lying in the shade, dreaming of a sunny day

Rudy, you’re sitting in the yard again
Watching your TV through the metal fence
Except when the rainy Sunday channel’s on

Rudy, I wish we spoke a common tongue
So we could tell you everything we love about you
And let you know we’ll keep you safe

We’ve got so much love to give
And you’re getting the brunt of it
How could there ever be such feelings deep inside of me?

And one day you’ll leave us all behind
Know we were grateful for the shortest time
Each day with you irreplaceable

Though you won’t be the only one
We won’t forget our firstborn son
You’ll never know all the things you’ve done

You taught us who we want to be
And how to give selflessly
My perfect little friend
Forever living in my head

Rudy, you’re sleeping on the floor again
I’ll pick you up and put you on the bed
Feeling you breathing in between my legs

‘Cause we’ve got so much love to give
And you’re getting the brunt of it
You’re lying in the shade, dreaming of a sunny day
