May, Brian - My Boy Lyrics






Strange how soon the party's over
I should know by now
My hand no longer guides your footsteps
Now you guide your own

And all that's left is the sound of your voice
And your face as you were on the screen
Hush, don't you cry, there'll be no pain
The bad wolf has gone

He'll have no part of our game
All too soon the dream world's fading
Says farewell
Since my boy became a man
(Don't make it too soon)
My small boy

    Such a beautiful song. It makes me cry. Brian you are an absolute genius with the most beautiful, kind heart and soul.

  24. �.... �....

    This song could make it to "The Game" instead of "Sail Away Sweet Sister". And maybe it would be a good substitution.
    But in fact it feels like a sequel of "Dear Friends" from "Sheer Heart Attack".

  25. �.... n....

    Omg Brian... so lovely :'3 ❤

  26. n.... ....

    Just beautiful.

  27. v.... b....

  35. W.... Q....

    Made with full feelings to the surface, Brian May's trade mark!

  36. M.... C....

    beautiful and very sad

  37. F.... ....

    I listen to this every night before I sleep. My lulla-Bri <3

  38. F.... ....

    That was very emotional and beautifully sung.

  39. B.... W....

    Yes it is from only the good die young

    B.... W....

    Bethan Williams Years before, actually. It could have been on "Back To The Light".

  40. J.... F....

    I thought the photo at 1:38 was from "only the good die young"? If it is, then the picture is just flipped.

  41. D.... ....

    So touching

  42. A.... ....

    it should have been on hot space

  43. A.... ....

    this is awesome

  44. M.... L....

    si esto hubiera sido incluido en hot space hubiera sidoo geniaaal <3

  45. g.... t....

    OH MY GOD ... this is so beautiful :')

  46. F.... ....

    Omg,that was so beautiful and sad at the same time. I really love an respect this man,not just because he's a singer,guitarist(the greatest)songwriter,and so on. I think this song was dedicated to his son Jimmy-he's trying to tell him not to grow up too soon...Brian's so adorable.

  47. M.... ....

    @DanskeSange Yeah, Angelicain was right. And here's proof: /watch?v=9QOoH-Okd0U

  48. n.... ....

    weird how someone like Brian can write/record something like this. go listen to dear friends off Sheer heart attack = melodically so close - but one is a master piece and one sounds like it was knocked up in a home studio by a nobody. I love Brian May - but he's no singer and he should have splashed some cash on real strings on this, and maybe just given us a little sigh of dual guitar. oh heck why shouldn't he record his own voice. ah., whatever. don't flame me Brian is apart of my DNA.

  49. M.... ....

    @joakkko95
    yeah that's right. I had never recognize it, if you hadn't write it!

  50. o.... ....

    Very beautiful song !

  51. A.... ....

    @DanskeSange righthanded
    the image at 1:38 is a mirrored image (just look at his shirt)

  52. M.... ....

    I met Brian 2 night ago at a book signing - what a lovely, wonderful, intelligent, talented, amazing down-to-earth (and gorgeous) man. This song is *wonderful*, never heard it before, thanks for posting!

    M.... ....

    I'm a reminder

  53. L.... ....

    Note how the piano intro is the same as save me live version

  54. M.... C....

    Oh my God, this song is so beautiful, it makes me cry.

    And he deserves it! I love this!

    M.... ....

    There a 7 now

  56. w.... ....

    Jesus! Brian is such a multi musical talent. Guitar (or anything with strings for that matter), piano, a voice that could cut diamonds and an amazing writing talent. This guy has been my role model for about 17 years now and he's still my biggest influence, even though I drifted in to punk music now... Brian FTW!!!

  57. W.... R....

    señoron!

  58. R.... t....

    beeeee non e poi tanto bellooooooo

  59. G.... ....

    Is there sheet music to be found for this anywhere?

  60. a.... b....

    wonderful

  61. D.... M....

    Absolutely, a very sweet voice.
    Don't forget Sail away sweet sister!!

    This guy is amazing...

  62. q.... ....

    I love this song. It's so very pretty!

  63. K.... ....

    Man, I just realised what a great lyricist Brian is.
    I already knew what a great guitarist, writer, and singer he is.
    But this is other worldly genius.

  64. m.... ....

    LOL - I get it now! I thought it was a weird thing to say :-)

  65. m.... ....

    I think saying your brain is a god is a bit odd.

  66. d.... ....

    that photo is rotated, see the logo on his shirt, its rotated too

  67. t.... ....

    The picture probably got flipped

  68. B.... L....

    Absolutely. Brian = Angel. =)

  69. l.... P....

    Very nice. I am moved. I love not only his hair

  70. s.... ....

    *cries*

    I love this man!

  71. B.... R....

    I said on another video that I felt "Dream Of Thee" was Brian's most beautiful composition. I lied - it's this one!

  72. L.... ....

    The piano sounds kinda like Save me,

  73. a.... ....

    This is Brian:A beautiful soul in an angel's face 0:40
    We will love you forever, Brian!!

    a.... ....

    I couldn't say better!

  74. B.... M....

    Beautiful song and beautiful Bri <3

  75. S.... ....

    That's good, because he just backed over your cat in the driveway.
    Hit the mailbox, too.

  76. m.... ....

    BRIAN <333333333

  77. s.... ....

    so do I

  78. L.... P....

    totally agree

  79. F.... ....

    Beautiful song...it shows that Brian is a great compositor and a great singer. He's a real musician, and my favorite guitarrist, i started to play thanks to him.

  80. W.... ....

    Such a beautiful.

  81. D.... F....

    To those who say that Brian has a weak singing voice, listen to this!!! BRIAN ROCKS!!

  82. G.... ....

    Ummm...it's in the upper right section. Just click on "more info."

  83. j.... ....

    Great! Do you know on where to get the single or on which album this song is?

    Thank you very much in advance and keep on Rocking!

  84. 1.... ....

    Wowow this is awesome!
    Does anyone has chords/tabs for this?

  85. J.... B....

    Thank you for posting this video...i had never heard it until today....it's absolutely beautiful...a forgotten gem. Brian is so talented and often gives me goosebumps when I listen to his music.

  86. g.... v....

    Fantastic song! Better than this screaming 46664!

  87. W.... ....

    Beautifulo man, beautiful song.

  88. M.... B....

    Why was it not put on an album? It's beautiful and near enough got me in tears. Such a beautiful song.
