paroles de chanson My Father's Eyes [Take 2] - Eric Clapton

Sailing down behind the sun
Waiting for my prince to come
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again

Just a toerag 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

Then the light begins to shine
I hear those ancient lullabies
And as I watch this seedling grow
Feel my heart start to overflow

Where do I learn 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

Where we really so far away
Where we really so far away
Where we really so far away
Where we really so far away

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 recognized
He was here with me
I looked into my father's eyes

As my soul slides down to die
How could I lose him?
What did I try?
Bit by bit, I've recognized
He was here with me
I looked into my father's eyes
