Lyrics
You see the wonder in each living thing.
I cherish the hope and faith this brings.
You?ll see the love that fills my life,
Every minute all day because you?re my child.
My baby, they say you?ve got my eyes,
The shape, the color and even the size.
As I grow to know you more each day,
You seem to look at life in a special way.
CHORUS
Your eyes believe in all I don?t see,
Maybe I can learn from the magic of your dreams.
I hope one day to realize
That I look at life through MY CHILD?S EYES,
MY CHILD?S EYES.
I sing you to sleep and the sandman arrives.
He says he?s never dusted more beautiful eyes.
I smile and I thank the heavens above
For giving me the greatest gift of love.
