My Father's Eyes

My Father's Eyes - Top Des Tops

Sailin' down behind the sun

Waitin' for the Prince to come

Praying for the healing rain

To restore my soul again

Just a Tuareg 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

My father's eyes

When I looked in my father's eyes

My father's eyes

Then the light begins to shine

And I hear those ancient lullabies

And as I watch 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

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

Then the jagged edge appears

Through the distant clouds of tears

I'm like a bridge that was 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've 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 looked into my father's eyes

My father's eyes

My father's eyes

Look into my father's eyes

My father's eyes
