My Mother s Eyes lyrics
"I think I ll sing you a little ballad.
It s a new one. I just learnt it.
Oh, I hope you like it."
Got my mother s eyes and my father s hair.
Does anybody really care?
It s gettin cold out here.
Well, I keep walkin with my head held high,
with my head to the sky,
with my mother s eyes.
And my mother s eyes are with me
in the darkness that s been paid for.
I m just a nameless stranger, don t know why.
Have I seen all that I could?
Have I seen more than I should
with my mother s eyes?
Have I seen all that I could?
Have I seen more than I should
with my mother s eyes?
And my mother s eyes are with me
in the chilly winds of autumn.
If I ain t here by winter, she ll know why.
I ve seen all that I dare.
I ve seen more than my share.
Forgive me if I stare with my mother s eyes.
