Father`s eyes

I could paint a picture of my heart, hanging on a wall
and watch the colours fade away 
tell the world that 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'm 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 when I
I see with my fathers eyes. 
I see with my fathers eyes.

You were like a fire and I’ve tried, risking all I am
to let you go and kill the pain
oh, my heart can burn so many times, I am proof of that
And I could paint a picture of my heart, hanging on a wall
and I would never walk away
I would stand there asking myself why I'm not broken yet

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 fathers eyes. I see with my fathers 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 ohhh
I see with my father's eyes. I see with my father's eyes.

Oh, why love my humanity, and I know why
lost in my sanity cause I think that i could learn to fly,
 I see it in my father’s eyes

Oh, why love my humanity, and I know why
lost in my sanity cause I think that I could learn to fly
So see it in my fathers 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 see with my father's eyes. I see with my father's eyes.
