Fathers Eyes

I could paint a picture of my heart
Hanging on a wall and watch the colours fade away
Tell the world we have been a lie
All this time we've spent

I could tell myself that I have done
All that I could do
If that would take the pain away

Tell the world we lost it, baby
I am not done here yet

I know that people think our love is like a fantasy
I know that no one seems to understand what I see
But I
I see with my father's eyes
I see with my father's eyes

You were like a fire and I try
Risking all I have
To let you go and kill the flames
Oh a heart can burn so many times
I am proof of that
Oh

I could paint a picture of your heart
Hanging on a wall and I would never walk away

I would stand there asking myself why I'm not broken

Oh-oh-oh

I know that people think our love is like a fantasy
I know that no one seems to understand what I see
When I
I see with my father's eyes
I see with my father's eyes

I know that everybody says you've not been good to me
They just don't realize I'm nothing if I set you free
I, I see with my father's eyes
I see with my father's eyes

Oh, I got my humanity
And I know I'm lost in my sanity
'Cause I
Think that I could learn to fly
I see it in my father's eyes

Oh, I got my humanity
And I know I'm lost in my sanity
'Cause I
Think that I could learn to fly
I see it in my father's eyes

I know that people think our love is like a fantasy
I know that no one seems to understand what I see
When I
I see with my father's eyes (oh, oh, eyes)
I see with my father's eyes

I know that everybody says you've not been good to me
They just don't realize I'm nothing if I set you free
I, I see with my father's eyes
I see with my father's eyes

(Oh, I got my humanity) I see with my father's eyes
(I know I'm lost in my sanity, oh-oh)
('Cause I)
I see with my father's eyes
I see with my father's eyes
