My Father's Eyes

I have seen it, I have seen it in my father's eyes,

I have seen it, I have seen it in my father's eyes,

I have heard it, I have heard it in my father's voice,

It's been a hard life, a hard fight, and all of the things that he wanted

Are in his hand, but silver would not betray what's written in the sand,

And a wall will not keep his people from the Promised Land;And I will never believe that the same thing could happen to me,

And I will never believe I'll give up on the dreams that I see

In my father's eyes, my father's eyes;I will go now, I will go now to my father's house,

I will show him, I will show him that I'm strong enough,

And there's a bright light, a great light that's shining around him

For now he has found a son, who will give to the world

The work he has begun, who will open the door to reveal

The chosen one;And I will never believe that the same thing could happen to me,

And I will never believe I'd give up on the dreams that I see

In my father's eyes;

In my father's eyes, in my father's eyes;And I will never believe that the same thing is happening to me,

And I will never believe I'd give up on the dreams that I've seen

In my father's eyes, in my father's eyes, my father's eyes;I have seen it, I have seen it in my father's eyes.
