My father's eyes
I may not be every mother's dream for her little girlAnd my face may not grace the mind of everyone in the worldBut thats alright as long as I can have one wish, I prayWhen people look inside my life, I wanna hear them say
She's got her father's eyesHer father's eyesEyes that find the good in thingsWhen good is not aroundEyes that find the source of help, when help just can't be foundEyes full of compassion, seein' every painKnowing what you're going through, and feelin' it the same
Just like my father's eyesmy father's eyesmy father's eyesJust like my father's eyes
On that day when we will pay for all the deeds we've doneGood and bad they'll all be had to see by everyoneAnd when you're called to stand and tell just what you saw in meMore than anything I know, I want your words to be
She had her father's eyes, her father's eyeseyes that found the good in things when good was not aroundeyes that found the source of help when help would not be foundEyes full of compassion, seein' every painKnowin' what you're goin' through and feelin it the same
Just like my father's eyes,My father's eyes,My father's eyes,Just like my father's eyes,My father's eyes,My father's eyes
