MY FATHER'S EYES

Eric Clapton\

Sailing down behind the sun
Waiting for my prince to come.
Praying for the healing rain

To restore my soul again.
Just a toerag 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.
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 lullabys.
And as I watched 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?
If I did I'd realize
That's when I need them.

That's when I need my father's eyes.
To 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.

Then the jagged edge appears
Through the distant clouds of tears.
I'm like a bridge that has washed away

My foundations were made of clay.
As my soul slides down to die.
How could I lose him?

What did I try?
If I did I'd realise
He was here with me.

I'd looked into my father's eyes.
Into my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.

I'd looked into my father's eyes.
Look into my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.

I'd looked into my father's eyes.
Look into my father's eyes.
My father's eyes.
