Father's 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, 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 father's eyes, I see with my father's eyes

You were like a fire and I've tried

Risking all I am to let you go and kill the flames

Oh, a heart can burn so many times, I am proof of that

Oh, 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 when I

I see with my father's eyes, I see with my father's eyes

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

They just don't realise I'm nothing if I set you free

I, I see with my father's eyes, I see with my father's eyes

Oh, I got my humanity, and I know why

Lost in my sanity 'cause I think that I could learn to fly

I see it in my father's eyes

Oh, I got my humanity and I know why

Lost in my sanity 'cause I think that I could learn to fly

I see it in my father's eyes

I know that people think our love is like a fantasy

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

I see with my father's eyes, I see with my father's eyes

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

They just don't realise I'm nothing if I set you free

I, I see with my father's eyes, I see with my father's eyes

Oh, I got my humanity, and I know why

Lost in my sanity 'cause I (I see with my father's eyes

I see with my father's eyes)
