"My Father's Eyes" lyrics

The house I know at the end of the road
Is still holdin' on to my father's eyes
I'd lie awake, hopin' he'd say
Tomorrow's the day, time to fly
Waitin' on a sign from my father's eyes

I hope that I made you proud of me
Even though I'm somebody else, I'm still the same

Home, I can hear your voice when I'm alone
Won't let it fade away now that I've grown
These city streets are new to me
Is this where I'm supposed to be, you'll know
You've always known

So when I close my eyes for to dream
The look that I see it's my father's eyes
He says I'm tall, even when I fall
He says a man's not afraid to cry
The tears on my face from my father's eyes

I hope that I made you proud of me
Even though I'm somebody else, I'm still the same

Home, I can hear your voice when I'm alone
Won't let it fade away now that I've grown
These city streets are new to me
Is this where I'm supposed to be, you'll know
You've always known

Time passes quickly
But I'll always carry you with me
In my mind you'll stay forever
I'll always remember my home

I can hear your voice when I'm alone
Won't let it fade away now that I've grown
These city streets are new to me
Is this where I'm supposed to be, you'll know
You've always known
