Fathers Eyes

I could paint a picture of my heart, hanging on a wall

and watch the colours fade away

tell the world that we have been a lie

all this time we’ve spent

I could tell myself that I have done all that I could do

if that would take the pain away

tell the world we lost it, baby I’m not done here yet

I know that people think our love is like a fantasy

I know that no one seems to understand what I see but I

I see with my fathers eyes. I see with my fathers eyes.

You were like a fire and I try, risking all I am

to let you going through the flames

oh, and I can burn so many times, I am proof of that

And I could paint a picture of your heart, hanging on a wall

and I would never walk away

I would stand there asking myself why I’m not broken yet

I know that people think our love is like a fantasy

I know that no one seems to understand what I see but I

I see with my fathers eyes. I see with my fathers eyes.

I know that everybody says you’ve not been good to me

they just don’t realize I’m nothing if I set you free

I see with my father’s eyes. I see with my father’s eyes.

Oh, I have my humanity , and I know why

lost in my sanity cause I, I think that I could learn to fly

I see it in my fathers eyes.

Oh I have my humanity and I know why

lost in my sanity cause I, I think that I could learn to fly

I see it in my fathers eyes.

I know that people think our love is like a fantasy

I know that no one seems to understand what I see but I

I see with my fathers eyes. I see with my fathers eyes.

I know that everybody says you’ve not been good to me

they just don’t realize I’m nothing if I set you free

I see with my father’s eyes. I see with my father’s eyes.

Oh why, see with my fathers eyes

Oh why, losing my sanity cause I

See with my fathers eyes

I see with my fathers eyes
