"Father's Eyes" lyrics

"Father's Eyes"

You got my temper
Always looking for a fight
A moth to a flame we're just alike

A hopeless ember
Floating through the sky
Just tryna find a place to start a fire

You don't have to make the same mistakes I lived
You don't have to live a life like I did
You're a spitting image of me
It's clear to see

You got your father's eyes
You got your mother's smile
The way you live your life
Ain't no surprise

You got the same old look
A page out the same old book
I see it when you laugh
Even when you cry
You got your father's eyes

The lonely highway
Is longer than you think
Don't get lost
It ain't a path you wanna take

You don't have to make the same mistakes I lived
You don't have to live a life that I live
It's because of you I changed my point of view

You got your father's eyes
You got your mother's smile
The way you live your life
Ain't no surprise

You got the same old look
A page out the same old book
I see it when you laugh
Even when you cry
You got your father's eyes

You don't have to make the same mistakes I lived
You don't have to live a life that I live
It's because of you I changed my point of view

You got your father's eyes
You got your mother's smile
The way you live your life
Ain't no surprise

You got the same old look
A page out the same old book
When I see you laugh, I see you cry
You got your father's eyes
