Uncle Bobby

Some people's stories, they go nowhere at all

Some people's songs are catchy, but they don't touch the soul

But yours are like a feeding tube right through my ears

They fatten up my dreams and run through my bloodstreams

Uncle Bobby

Uncle Bobby

Uncle Bobby, I love you so

Uncle Bobby

I love you, love you, Uncle

Uncle Bobby, you'll never know

I love you not like a husband to have and to hold

I love you not like a child to do as they're told

I love you not like a sculpture love her mold

I love you not like a masterpiece bought and sold

Uncle Bobby

I love you, love you, Uncle

Uncle Bobby, I love you so

Uncle Bobby, I love you, love you, love you, Uncle

Uncle Bobby, you'll never know

I know you're just a man of flesh

And a bit of sand and blood and cash

But I'm so glad you've been born

Unto us

Unto us

Ah, you leave me torn and lovelorn

Ah, you leave me crying, ready to mourn

Ah, you leave me waiting for that eternal storm

Ah, you leave me happy and reborn

Ah, you leave me trying to break down doors

And waiting for more, waiting for more

Uncle Bobby

I love you, love you, Uncle

Uncle Bobby, you'll never know

Uncle Bobby, I love you, love you, love you, Uncle

Uncle Bobby, I love you so

Uncle Bobby

Uncle Bobby, I love you

Uncle Bobby, I love you so

Not like a husband to have and to hold

Not like a disciple who do what they're told

Not like a masterpiece that's been bought and sold

Not like the frontiers when love is gold

Not like the icicle love the winter cold

Uncle Bobby

I love you, Uncle

Uncle Bobby, I love you so

Uncle Bobby, I love you, love you, love you, Uncle

Uncle Bobby, you'll never know

Uncle Bobby

Uncle Bobby, I love you

Uncle Bobby, I love you so

Uncle Bobby, Uncle Bobby, Uncle Bobby

Uncle Bobby, you'll never know
