father's eyes

, tomorrow shell be turning 17, but somehow now the mirror has become her enemy, feelin like shell never measure up, feelin like shell never be enough, in her fathers eyes, he is taken by her beauty, and captivated by her every time, in her fathers eyes, he is longing just to tell her, shes never been more lovely in her life, if only she could see herself one time, in her fathers eyes, hes on the edge of giving up tonight, hes feelin like hes wasted the best days of his life, afraid hell never be the man he thought that he could be, when he looks inside hes so ashamed of who he sees, but in his fathers eyes he is a son of glory, the image of a strong and mighty king, in his fathers eyes, theres more left in the story, hes fighting hard to hold back tears of pride, if only he could see himself tonight, in his fathers eyes, so no matter where you are, and no matter what youve done, youre not alone, youre not alone, and no matter where youve been, and no matter where youre from, come back home, come back home, cos in your fathers eyes, youre loved with such abandon, hes running to you now arms open wide, in your fathers eyes, youre safe and youre accepted, theres nothing you can do to change his mind, if only you could see yourself one time, if only you could see yourself one time, in your fathers eyes, in your fathers eyes
