My Father's Eyes Lyrics

Sailin' down behind the sun Waitin' for the 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 looked in my father's eyes (Look into 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
(Look into my father's eyes) My father's eyes That's when I need my father's eyes [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/my-fathers-eyes-lyrics-eric-clapton.html ] (Look into my father's eyes) My father's eyes (Yeah)
Then the jagged edge appears Through the distant clouds of tears Now 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 And I looked into my father's eyes
(Look into my father's eyes) My father's eyes I looked into my father's eyes (Look into my father's eyes) My father's eyes
My father's eyes (Look into my father's eyes) My father's eyes I looked into my father's eyes (Look into my father's eyes) My father's eyes
(Look into my father's eyes) (Look into my father's eyes) (Yeah, yeah) (Look into my father's eyes)
