My Father’s Eyes By 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 My father’s eyes When I look 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 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. Father Figure By George Michael That’s all I wanted Something special something sacred – In your eyes For just one moment To to bold and naked At your side Sometimes I think that you’ll never Understand me Maybe this time is forever Say it can be That’s all you wanted Something special, someone sacred – In your life Just for one moment To be warm and naked At my side Sometimes I think that you’ll never Understand me But something tells me together We’ll be happy Refrain (Baby) I will be your father figure (Oh baby) Put your tiny hand in mine (I’d love to) I will be your preacher teacher. Father By Demi Lovato Father, I’m gonna say thank you Even if I’m still hurt Oh, I’m gonna say bless you I wanna mean those words Always wished you the best I, I prayed for your peace Even if you started this This whole war in me You did your best or did you? Sometimes I think I hate you I’m sorry, dad, for feelin’ this I can’t believe I’m sayin’ it I know you were a troubled man I know you never got the chance To be yourself, to be your best I hope that Heaven’s given you A second chance Father, I’m gonna say thank you Even if I don’t understand Oh, you left us alone I guess that made me who I am Always wished you the best I, I, I pray for your peace Even if you started this This whole war in me You did your best or did you?
