SEEING THROUGH YOUR EYES
Although I didn't get to say I love you
I feel there will never be goodbyes
From my own flesh you came and I'm not ashamed
There's nothing in this world as real, as the love of a child
Now I'm seeing through your eyes for the first time
I know you will be with me forever more
Yes you've given me the gift of sight
Taken me from darkness into light
I'm looking through a window into sunlight
And the love you gave is washing over me
I know it's not the same and I cannot blame your life or mine
I'll find peace of mind, knowing you loved me as I love you
Now I can feel you walking in the shadows
I'm sure I hear you singing in the rain
You touch my heart anew when I'm feeling sad and blue
That's when I hear the sound of music on the air
Yes I'm seeing through your eyes for the first time
And you will be with me forever more
I thank you for the gift of sight
And taking me from darkness into light

SEEING THROUGH YOUR EYES
Although I didn't get to say I love you
I feel there will never be goodbyes
From my own flesh you came and I'm not ashamed
There's nothing in this world as real, as the love of a child
Now I'm seeing through your eyes for the first time
I know you will be with me forever more
Yes you've given me the gift of sight
Taken me from darkness into light
I'm looking through a window into sunlight
And the love you gave is washing over me
I know it's not the same and I cannot blame your life or mine
I'll find peace of mind, knowing you loved me as I love you
Now I can feel you walking in the shadows
I'm sure I hear you singing in the rain
You touch my heart anew when I'm feeling sad and blue
That's when I hear the sound of music on the air
Yes I'm seeing through your eyes for the first time
And you will be with me forever more
I thank you for the gift of sight
And taking me from darkness into light
