0:46Sailing down behind the sun
0:51Waiting for my prince to come
0:56Praying for the healing rain
1:01To restore my soul again
1:07Just a toe rag on the run
1:12How did I get here
1:14What have I done
1:17When will all my hopes arise
1:22How will I know him
1:24When I look in my father's eyes
1:31My father's eyes
1:35When I look in my father's eyes
1:41My father's eyes
1:51Then the light begins to shine
1:55And I hear those ancient lullabies
2:01And as I watch this seedling grow
2:06Feel my heart start to overflow
2:11Where do I find the words to say
2:16How do I teach him
2:19What do we play
2:21Bit by bit I've realized
2:26That's when I need them
2:29That's when I need my father's eyes
2:36My father's eyes
2:40That's when I need my father's eyes
2:46My father's eyes
3:34Then the jagged edge appears
3:39Through the distant clouds of tears
3:44I'm like a bridge that was washed away;
3:49My foundations were made of clay
3:55As my soul slides down to die
4:00How could I lose him
4:02What did I try
4:04Bit by bit I've realized
4:10That he was here with me;
4:12I looked into my father's eyes
4:19My father's eyes
4:23I looked into my father's eyes
4:29My father's eyes
4:34My father's eyes
4:40My father's eyes
4:44I looked into my father's eyes
4:50My father's eyes
Sailing down behind the sun Waiting for my prince to come Praying for the healing rain To restore my soul again Just a toe rag on the run How did I get here What have I done When will all my hopes arise How will I know him When I look in my father's eyes My father's eyes When I look in my father's eyes My father's eyes Then the light begins to shine And I hear those ancient lullabies And as I watch this seedling grow Feel my heart start to overflow Where do I find the words to say How do I teach him What do we play Bit by bit I've realized That's when I need them That's when I need my father's eyes My father's eyes That's when I need my father's eyes My father's eyes Then the jagged edge appears Through the distant clouds of tears I'm like a bridge that was washed away; My foundations were made of clay As my soul slides down to die How could I lose him What did I try Bit by bit I've realized That he was here with me; I looked into my father's eyes My father's eyes I looked into my father's eyes My father's eyes My father's eyes My father's eyes I looked into my father's eyes My father's eyes
