Sailing down behind the sun
Waiting for the prince to come
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again
Just a toe rack on the run
How did I get here what have I done
When will all my hopes arise
How will I know if when I look in my father's eyes
Look into my father's eyes my father's eyes
When I look 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 the ceiling 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
Look into my father's eyes my father's eyes yeah
In the jagged edge of peace
Through the misty clouds of tears
I'm like a bridge that is 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 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 look 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 look into my father's eyes
